Another choice is to use the sounds in the PSR because it's hardware, no latency at all if the sounds are good enough for you so no need to mess around with ASIO. Bob



Thanks for your help. I'm not that fussy about sounds, I'm not trying to create quality demos, just songwrite, get down my melodies in BIAB. I also want to be able to enter lyrics to and create sheet music, if possible.

So if I used the keyboard's sounds, then it will record as audio instead of midi, correct? And then am I not more limited in how I can manipulate that file, if it's audio instead of midi? Like, I might be able to give a midi file to a studio producer, but could I equally well give them an audio file?




That means you're not using the audio output from your laptop, you use your headphones or audio cables directly from the PSR.

I don't understand this. What I need to do is record melodies over BIAB arrangements. If the PSR Yamaha was recording/played directly into the laptop, wouldn't I be able to hear everything together through the laptop sound card?

Excuse my newb igno, thanks for help.
