Can You Record on GO:KEYS 3 and GO:KEYS 5? Using a DAW

[@George-jo7mi]

Thanks for the intro to daw. It's new to me and I love the sounds on this keyboard and will be diving into recording now that you have demystified it to a certain extent. Love the way you keep it simple!

[@phillc]

Thanks for stopping by my friend! Happy to help! All the best in your music creating!

[@MrFirstMiddleLast]

Thanks PhilC, just the video I was looking for.

[@phillc]

Thank you @MrFirstMiddleLast for the great question that spurred its creation :)

[@tzodearf2596]

Excellent suspense music just in time for me to fall asleep.

[@phillc]

@tzodearf2596 Cheers! 😇💤😵💫 Sweet dreams!

How many MIDI channels it receives via USB MIDI? I've seen somewhere that it only receives one channel, but now I can't find that info. Midi Implementation guide is weird, but says that this synth is MIDI GM2 compatible. I am completely confused. Is it multitimbral via external MIDI?

[@phillc]

Sorry for the delay my friend. Just seeing this. Yes it has only ONE channel. Midi is not that great!

[@AmelioMedardo]

Molto interessante

[@MrFirstMiddleLast]

Hey Phill, how have you connected the hockey’s to your DAW?

[@phillc]

Via the USB Cable out socket.

Hi and thanks for this videos. Does the go keys 5 has a metronome for the recording function?

[@phillc]

Yessir! It does have a metronome for recording!

[@tafallablas]

another question, Can you transfer the midi file in a DAW? Are the arranger tracks contained into this file.mid?

[@phillc]

Great question @tafallablas. Thanks. It does not convert very well. Bass and drums and embellishments are missing. Very insufficient sound. I have a video about your question coming soon. Keep checking and you will see how poor it sounds when moved to the DAW.

how many sounds can you layer in these keyboard?

[@phillc]

2 sounds is the max. One lower and one upper.

[@jenslempke7883]

It's not multitimbral, right?

[@phillc]

Multitimbral means an electronic musical instrument can produce multiple different sounds (or timbres) simultaneously. Imagine a keyboard that can play a piano sound with your left hand and a flute sound with your right hand at the same time. That's multitimbral! ..........SO Yes, in that definition, the Roland GO:KEYS 5 is a multitimbral keyboard. This means it can produce multiple sounds simultaneously, allowing you to layer different instruments or create complex arrangements. It has a polyphony of 128 voices, which means it can play up to 128 notes at once. It is not advertised as such though. NOTE: You cannot transmit multiple Midi channels at a time from GO:KEYS 5.

[@jenslempke7883]

@@phillc Multitimbral by your latest definition is how most musicians define the word 😉, the ability to TRANSFER on multiple channels at the same time and thereby be a possible full track sound module or splitable to several keyboards.
