Can I save what I play on the keyboard to an MP3 file?

by tippy
(richmond, va)

I am a member of a women's barbershop quartet and I need to learn music. I learn best by listening to the music, but I do not play the piano. I want to be able to give my music sheet to someone who does, have them play it on their keyboard and save the results into an MP3 that I can move to a CD or ipod and listen to it later. Can keyboards do this?

Keyboards with MIDI ports can do this. You have to get a MIDI connector, there is a UX-16 MIDI connector with USB for computer. (Or you can have MIDI-MIDI, if your computer has a soundcard wtih it's own MIDI port).

Once you have downloaded the driver for your MIDI connector your computer will understand it. Then you have the ability to record directly to the computer.

Depending one what sound file it is saved as you can convert later to an mp3 with a program called dbpoweramp.
