I cannot figure out when running my Keyboard into my audio interface If I should switch it to Line* level or Instrument* level?? I've found out that both can work depending on this and that. What do most people use for keyboards? Line or instrument??
I have been using *Line from day 1. The reason I started looking into it was that it seems I dont get much volume out of my Monitors. Have not made a recording yet, just trying to feel it all out.
Quick Noob question!

So I'm guessing your midi controller has no usb option?

Im playing Keyboard thru my audio interface because that is the only way to amplify it other than headphones. Just want to use the FA-06 standalone for now, when I get my head around Reason Im sure I'll integrate it but for now I just want to use the Focusrit to run it through my monitors. Make any sense?

For keyboards i use Line. Especially since line on my interface is balanced, and my synths have balanced outputs (using TRS cable).
The instrument inputs i have are not balanced.
About what to use, instrument level is usually that what you get from a guitar or mic. It is something that usually needs some kind of amplification.
Line level is that what you get from synths in general, and line level outputs of outboard devices such as for example FX processers. It is often balanced and has enough level that it does not have to be amplified.
