Headphone to a Digital piano with no Headphone jack??
on: February 07, 2009, 07:14:35 AM
i bought a baldwin rp90 recently. I need to be able to plug in my headphones on to the piano, but it has no headphone jack.. The piano has a input (left right), output (left right), computer, and Midi (in, out, thru)holes.

When i first bought the digital piano, I thought that the only thing that i would eventually need is some kind of converter to change the two output jacks into a headphone jack in order for me to listen to my piano through a headphone set. Finding such a thing is harder then i imagined it to be.

I found a single headphone to output jack converter at a store and tried that out on the piano today. I tried plugging it into the left output, no sound through the headphones at all. I tried plugging the headphone to the right output, no sound either. The piano completely ignores the headphone that is plugged into the piano and plays the notes through its speakers without a care.. That really is starting to worry me. Does this mean that putting a headphone through the output will have no effect? i mean it should at least react to the single output that is plugged in and have sounds coming through the headphones..

Getting really worried. Any ideas will be much appreciated
