Hi there,

Just wondering -- recently I tried plugging my Marshall MG10CD Guitar Amplifier into my KORG i4s Arranger Keyboard -- I tried plugging the lead into every jack on the back of the keyboard...and I get nothing! I can't hear the keyboard through the amplifier (I have the lead plugged into the 'input' jack on the amplifier). I need to know -- Is there a solution to this which does not involve buying a keyboard amplifier? I've heard you can play a keyboard through a guitar amp. The sound may not be as good, but hey.

Thanks a lot,

Archaeon.

Oh and by the way -- this post is also on the Keyboard Corner forums, but these forums are perhaps more suited to it.

I think that you mean that you want to plug your keyboard INTO your AMP. (into the INPUT)

There should be no problem plugging the keyboard INTO the same jack as the guitar goes in. In fact I tried also plugging a keyboard into a FUZZ BOX to make it sound more like a guitar as well !

You should watch out for playing basslines on the keys and running it through the g*****r amp.

On the other hand, you could sell the gu***r amp and get a 2x10 bass amp with a tweeter, then you would be set.
