I have a full length Casio electric piano but it has no special output or input plugs. The only thing it has is a headphone input. Could you use this to hook it up to PA? Or will it not work?

Hopefully someone will know what I'm talking about, raaaaaaaaaa. Kthanks.
I have no clue about your piano problems, but does this mean a return to the boards for you? Haven't seen you around here in like 6 months haha.

I'm used to playing 'analogue' so sorry for my unsound knowledge in the technical department!

Anyway thanks for all of your help.
Sorry, I didn't mean that to be insulting.
Just trying to illustrate the reasoning behind my assumptions.

Good luck!

Haha I'm surprised somebody remembered me, I've been really busy with my new job! I'm hoping to stick around here some more now.
