Title: [Noobish] - Connecting Mix Output to Mic/Guitar Input of Arranger Keyboard?
Post by: PelkerToffl on November 19, 2018, 08:06:23 pm
Hi there,

is it possible to connect the Mix output of the Drumbrute to the "Mic/Guitar Input" of my Yamaha PSR-S775? This input is an 6.35 mm (​1⁄4 inch) phone socket with a mic/guitar switch and a gain-poti.

I'm not sure if this will blow up my Arranger - is the voltage signal form the Drumbruetes Mix Out basically the same as an mic/guitar would send or is it substantially higher?

Sorry, I could not find any information on this issue. It would be aboulutely awesome if this would work, because then I could use some fancy stuff like effects and compressor from the arranger...  8)

Regards

Hi PelkerToffl,
DrumBrute Mix output is at line signal level. This is not the right impedance for a "Mic/Guitar Input".

Generally it will work, just watch the output level of the Impact. To be sure you may want to place a reversed DI box inbetween for impedance matching.
