I just bought a Korg D888 that I want to use to live record my band. The problem I encountered was when it came to recording the vocals and keyboard. We need the keyboard and vocals to go through the monitors we have (otherwise we can't hear them). So I plug the input of the monitors with the monitor output on the recorder. However, I get no sound from the monitor. If I plug the monitor into the phone jacks on the recorder, I have to turn the phones volume up all the way and even then the sound is weak (not able to hear over the drums/guitar). I was wondering what the problem might be? The monitors are 4 and 8 ohm connections I believe.

are the monitors powered?

you will need some sort of power amp to amplify the line level output from your D888.
