I hope that you can help me. I am a novice keyboard player with a disability. I have Parkinson's disease and I purchased my Korg Pa5x a few years ago to enable me to enjoy playing the keyboard for my mental health.
The Pa5x is an excellent machine, and I have hardly explored all the functionality that it offers me.
I decided to buy second hand a Korg Nautilus 73 to explore the functions of a workstation.
I have installed the Nautilus workstation on a two tier keyboard stand, and I bought some cables which I thought I would use to plug my Nautilus into the Pa5x and then I would be able to hear my Nautilus sound on my PaAS speaker
I first used 1/4 inch mono jack leads which I connected to the Audio out L & R jack sockets on my Nautilus and to the Audio In L&R jack sockets on my Pa5x.
I could not hear any sound on the PaAS speaker. The Pa5x was powered up, but I could not find out how to enable the Audio In sockets on my Pa5x to be able to hear the Nautilus sound.
I had also bought 3 midi cables. Please note that I am not familiar with MIDI function, but I thought I would plug in the OUT socket on the Nautilus into the IN socket of the Pa5x.
I then thought that I would plug in the other two MIDI cables to the IN/OUT sockets which remained and the THROUGH socket too.
I heard sound but it was not the full sound which I could hear on headphones connected to the Nautilus.
Can you please provide me with some simple instructions which would allow me to hear the full sound of the Nautilus on the Pa5x PaAS speaker?
I can see a large number of options in the MIDI menu, but I don't have enough understanding to competently troubleshoot.
My current view is that what I am trying to do is not supported between the two keyboards, and that I may need to buy an external mixing desk and connect that to an external amplifier and speakers in order to hear both the Nautilus and the Pa5X sound.
I hope that you are able to help me.
