Hi there!
I am new to midi but have the keyboards and a Mac G3. I am interested in getting a copy of Cubase VST but am unsure of how to connect properly. I have seen midi interfaces advertised but the one's i mainly see are all of the USB type. Can I use a usb type to connect my keyboards (Yamaha DJX and Novation Bass station) to my G3? I have 2 usb sockets in my G3 and I'm running Mac OS8.6 . The VST handbook only seems to mention the modem/printer connection port and not the usb. I've seen a cheap usb midi interface for £50 (I'm on a bit of a budget!) but can I use it without any problems? Please help me out as I'm dying to get started up! Many thanks to anyone who will help me out!!! Ce message a été modifié par vervy - lun. 12 mai 2003, 19:06. |

yep... just get yourself a USB midi interface and you should be fine. Some manuals were written when serial ports were plentiful on computers and USB was still just emerging so that is why you see mention only of printer and modem ports.
