    So I have a midi keyboard and I want to connect to a speaker or amp. What would the best way to do this be I know you can't plug it straight into a amp or speaker.

    midi keyboards dont send any audio signal, you will need a rack unit or to hook it up to a computer to turn the data signal to a audible signal.

    Hi Burn4Him - why the Yamaha VL70-M? It's very specialised (and monophonic I think). How about a (used) Roland JV-1010?

    Hello manin - what is it you've got exactly - make/model?
