The manual aint got much on that but a diagram of connections and thats for if youve got two keyboards, and you plug both the midi in and out into the other keyboard then alesis to computer via usb..
so for controlling v. synths do I need to buy a cable for the midi in also? or will it work with just the midi in? , not at home right now so cant try it out ! |
If your keyboard/controller has a USB connector, all you need is a normal USB cable. You can indeed connect other midi devices through the midi in/out (with a regular 5-pins midi cable). The joystick port solution is only if you have a midi controller (like a synth or something) with midi out but no USB connection.
