Stereo Output to a single cable

Will this wiring work? - I want to output stereo from my Korg Kross1 to my amp, but transmit that in ONE TRS cable. Using a dual TS to single TRS adapter, can I combine the "sleeve" conductors of the Kross1 Left and Right outputs, into the 3 conductor cable where Tip1=Left Channel, Sleeve1=Common ...

Agreed, Korghelper,
I love the ribbon for those things! It feels more natural than any other pitch controller. Thats when I use my Roland AX-09.

I totally understand Musicwithharry, personal preference. I'll tolerate wearing a 38in wide keyboard just so I can get a full 5 octaves, with splits and good on-board sounds, and not have the midi cable attached. In my bands, I don't play guitar solos, I play keyboard solos, so I need both hands on ...

sutekh, have you considered converting an existing lightweight synth into a keytar? I converted my Kross1 into a keytar. This keytar has 5 octaves of full size keys, with multiple splits, battery powered, under 10lbs, and one of the coolest looking KROG's ever made. https://youtu.be/I7YHznSAEYY I ...

Nice work, FANTC! I think the biggest innovation in Keytars was on-board sounds in ~2009. No more hassel with midi cables and reliability. I love my Roland AX-09 Lucina And I like the freedom of Keytars so much that I converted my Kross61 into a keytar. https://youtu.be/I7YHznSAEYY Saved money and ...

I wouldn't sell my Kross1. It looks better than the Kross2. In fact, I enjoy it even more since I converted it to a keytar. https://youtu.be/I7YHznSAEYY I'm also sticking with my Yamaha for the classic keys/organ/clav "bread and butter" sounds. No regrets on selling anything in the past. When I ...
