Would anyone know if I will plug it into a electric piano or keyboard, would the mic work?

If the piano has a input it should work. Not sure it would sound good through a piano. If you are that close to the piano use a wired mic. This VHF wireless mic sounds very telephone like. There is a lot of static and it sounds like you are talking over a CB radio. Get a $15 dollar wired mic and a cheap cable.

yes !! just make sure the piano has the same connection. now if you to close to the piano ill make a loud noise so you have to be away from the piano to work!

Yes it should work with your keyboard but if that is your primary use I would recommend getting the midi version of it. That will give you a higher accuracy level on the harmonys

It could be, but you will need to be careful about reflections off of back walls, etc. that could muddy the sound. If there are heavy drapes or sound absorbing panels behind the piano, then it might work OK. Shotgun mikes also are not the best for music. They are designed for speech. If you can get a mike near or into the piano with a long cord or wireless mike, you would do better. It is always a good idea to preview the site, if you can.

The compatability depends upon the fit between the male jack at the end of the headphone wire and the input female jack on the piano. A readily available adapter connection between the two can overcome a mismatch. The sound quality is your decision.

The keyboard should work with the included USB cable. You may also want to consider buying a sustain pedal for more serious pianists.

The mic is very "near field" and while very clean might not be best for singing. For simple "good enough" music for your own usage, it would be okay for the voice, but probably wouldn't do for the piano being that the sound level would be too variable based on the distance. That is, the strings far away from the mic would not be heard, while those close up would be too loud. It wouldn't be my first choice for musical applications, though I may try it for singing. I'll update and let you know.

I don't think you've given enough information. What software do you want to use this with (e.g., Garage Band)? What kind of computer? If you're expecting sound to come out of the keyboard, it won't, it will come out of the computer.

Yes, very well. I have a Yamaha electronic piano and it picked up the chords from the piano sound and Fender Rhodes sound just fine. I was surprised that it seemed to find nice harmonies when I was playing Maj7th and 9th chords. One thing to note: The "guitar" input is a mono unbalanced input. So if your piano has a stereo output, it will come out mono after it goes out the "Thru". So, if you have any kind of mixer, like a Mackie 12-channel, send a mono output from your piano to the TC-Helicon through an Aux send and your piano will stay in stereo.

you could and it would work , but I don´t know about the quality of the recording since that is only for monitoring purposes. If there is line out in your keyboard I would use that

Yes, I believe so. My friend uses the same cable and loves it for his guitar. I'm sure it will work for a keyboard or synthesizer.

I'm not 100% sure, but I do believe it will work with any keyboard with a midi connection. if your program has midi support, it should also work. This cord is pretty much just a default midi connection

As long as your piano has a 1/4" jack output, and your computer has a USB input, yes. I use this cable to connect a MicroKORG to a Mac. The downside is that it outputs to mono. However, I'm not sure if that's just because of my setup.

Yes. You would want a RCA to Trs cable for that. However, it does not work well with a home audio receiver . The volume levels are low. I believe this has something to do with the output voltage at the piano end. It does work very well with a PA system using trs - trs cable

It won't do anything. It needs some sort of program running to make noise. MIDI controllers like this are just buttons in the shape of a keyboard that tell your computer what to do. There are some free plugins/programs you could can use for piano sounds or synths. I use Alicia's Key's by Native Instruments, but that costs money (but it's worth it imo). You can use a laptop or even a tablet with the right adapters if you have those.In short, the keyboard itself doesn't make any noise without other software.

It should work out of the box. It will appear in your DAW as a midi device.

It would, yes, but it wont work. They are both outbputs (The keyboard and headphone jack) I think what you want to get is an audio interface like this....http://www.americanmusical.com/Item--i-BEH-UM2-LIST. You want to play your keyboard through the laptop right? With the interface you can also record.

Yes, I do it all the time with Cakewalk Music Maker 6. You can use the line in or the mic ports. You may have to do some selecting in your computer's "Recording Devices" and probably in Audacity. Once that's all set you should be good to go. I don't know what kind of piano you have but I have found that on my Concertmate piano (it's Casio based) I have to unplug the AC power and run it on batteries or I will get a faint hum in the recording simply due to the inherent issue with Casio power supplies.
