Topic: Roland HP605 and Pianoteq
Hi all!
I've recently started learning how to play piano and bought a Roland HP605 to practice at home (my classes are on a Yamaha C3).
I really like the tone of my HP605 but being a engineer I find it much less limiting to use my HP605 as only a keyboard and use Pianoteq to get the sound of, say, a Steinway :-)
So, at the moment, I have my Roland connected to my MacBook running Pianoteq and I am listening to the sound through a set of not so good headphones connected to the computer.
What is the best approach to have a good sound out of my MacBook? A USB sound card with external speakers? Can anyone share their setup so I can get some pointers to where to look up to for my configuration? I am just confused with balanced, unbalanced, TRS, XLR, active/passive speakers...
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Miguel
