Bernie-Thanks for the explanation. I have set up using the two cables to connect from the 6500 to the Compact. I have not tried the mike yet as I have to buy the right cable. I only had a quick playaround last night, but I cant get a good piano sound. They all sound "tinney" Have you any suggestions. Would appreciate any advice as I hope to use all my settings in a gig coming up in the next few weeks.Time was limited yesterday as we had a terrific storm here, but my roof is still on. Cheers. Jean.
