I am new to the DAW world but here is my problem. I have a Yamaha P120 and a 3ghz computer with 1.5Gigs of ram and an Emu 0404 soundcard.
Now this may sound strange or naive but let me know what I can do.
My P120 sounds incredible when I put my headphones (Sennheiser HD595) into the headphone jack. But through my computer the sound lacks everything -- sounds shallow and distant even through my headphones. I turn the volume up on my headphone amp and no matter how loud I can't reproduce the sound quality I get from my keyboard.
Now I can play professional piano recordings and albeit they have some super high end gear and mine sucks frankly. But what am I doing wrong?
I have messed with EQs, mono, stereo, compression, preamps, signal volume, etc.
Am I out of luck? Do I need a better soundcard? External mixer, better preamp? Or do I just need more EQing.
I heard the P120 is an awesome sounding keyboard for recording but I can't figure out how to make it sound good.
Thanks for any help.
