the keyboard player in my band plays mostly organ parts but his keyboard sounds terrible. Nothing like the 60s bands that we are trying to sound like. Then at practice i put him through my old Pro reverb which is like a twin and it sounded so good because of the breakup. I'm just using the 1/4 out from his keyboard to the amp and was wondering is this harmful to the keyboard or amp?

I have a boss DDR550 MK2 and was wondering if I can hook up the drum machine to the computer with just a midi in. It has no midi out. And if so what is the best and cheapest way to do this.

My setup: Running Cubase Se1 on a MAudio Delta 44 4 ins 4 outs with Maudio monitors. Ashdown bass amp, SGH and a crate guitar amps, two Audio technica dynamic mics, MXL condenser with an ART tube preamp.
