Hi Fellas,
I have to decide if I should play the keyboard and the mp3s through the main outs OR try to use the aux. out for the mp3 and the main out for the keyboard? If I use 4 outputs then I need 4 cables. Is it worth it?
Thanks Frank

Just curious

If you sent the Styles or MP3 to Outs 1-2, would you lose the FX Chain, and the ability to apply FX to those instruments?

Wouldn't be an issue with an MP-3 as its likely already mastered, but you may lose some control of the Styles

Depends on what you want to do outside the keyboard in terms of mix/amp etc...
If you're happy to have everything merged, then leave it all to L&R - you still have mixer control on the keyboard.
I use 1&2 for vocals, L&R for everything else and it works really well - particularly for recording.

Outputs 1&2 are dry so you need to apply your own configuration externally...
