Hi.
I'm using a PSR E425. I like the longer keyboard. I am considering buying a Psr SX 600.
Is it possible to connect the E425 to an SX 600.
The scenario is to use the keybed of the E425 with the functionality of the SX 600.
[ I think the industry parlance is E425=Controller and Psr SX 600 = sound module].
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
Kev.

hello Kev,
To interconnect two keyboards (as master/slave), both of them need midi connectors -and so, at least as far I know, that's impossible with these two keyboards.
Maybe that's possible by using some external USB<->midi controller... and if that's the case, I'm sure Chris will tell more about that.

In case it is of use: I connected the Psr E425 to a Korg Nautlius keyboard I borrowed.
The E425 connected no problem with the Korg ( I needed to use the appropriate USB cable and adjust the Function Midi buttons per the E425 manual ).
The result was the Sounds in the Korg played fine when I played the required notes on the E425 keyboard. ie Psr 425 acted as the controller.
I haven't tried this with a Psr sx 600, 700, 900 but I would imagine the E425 ( extra long keyboard) will connect to these suitably. Before I buy I'd bring my E425 with me to the Shop to double Test.
