I think this solution should work for me (USB/DIN connector) but the Korg also has a THRU port and some switches for Transmit Channel and Receive Channel. There appear to be 16 channels for each. How do I set those?
@PeteJohnsMusic 5 жыл бұрын
Hmmmm..... I must admit that I use MiDI in quite a basic way. I think this might be more relevant when you are sending and receiving multiple MIDI channels as opposed to just using the keyboard as an input for virtual instruments. It should be just plug and play in terms of using it to trigger sounds.

Hey Pete, I have a piano with Midi In/Out. I know the Midi Out is working 100%, never used Midi In yet so I can't say for sure but I assume it also works. Questions: 1) Can I connect such a cable to only the piano's midi out, essentially only connecting one of the midi ends? 2) Does the USB light on yours light up already when you only have the USB connected but not the midi? Reason I'm asking is because I got a similar (but different brand) cable yesterday simply can't get it to work at all. None of the LEDs are lighting up at all. I tried different USB ports on my PC already and also on my tablet.

Hey there. Yes, you can totally use for just MIDI out from a keyboard. That’s how I use mine. And the issue with it not working? I’ve found that cheaper cables are super unreliable which is why I recommend the Roland/Edirol version. It’s a little more expensive but everyone I’ve recommended it to has had success.

Hello! Thanks for the video. I have a Roland PC-200. it only has a midi out, and i just ordered the Roland um-one. Im wondering if it will work to control my midi instruments in Ableton with only one of the midi cords plugged in. any idea?
@PeteJohnsMusic 3 жыл бұрын
Yup. 100%. If you just want to send data from your keyboard or controller to your recording app then all you need is MIDI out. 👍

Great video there Pete. Would this transport velocity information as well ? If so, this could convert any bottom bracket MIDI capable instrument into a super expensive sounding instrument, thanks to some very capable virtual instruments.

If the original price of hardware is sending velocity then the system will pick it up.

Silly question but is it better to use midi 5 port cables that connect to USB, or using midi to midi that plugs in to the back of audio interface? I plan on using my Yamaha keyboard to play in Ableton and Studio 1-4. Great video !
@PeteJohnsMusic 2 жыл бұрын
Hey there. So, really doesn’t make much difference in my experience. Direct USB MIDI seems to be the best option most of the time but the Edirol/Roland adapter is really good and super low latency.

Depends on the device you’re using and the software. Things like GarageBand iOS only support one MIDI input device at a time. Others allow multiple.

Hi Pete. Do you know if these two cables will allow me to record from my v old 90s technics keyboard into the voice demos app on my iPhone or iPad? My keyboard has a 5 track sequencer built in which I can make basic backing tracks on for my singing teaching but I have no way of storing them. Thanks so much for your video and any help you can give me! x

Hi. Thanks for the video. I have two questions: if the midi out of the device has phantom power will the adapter work? And if the device only has midi out and not midi in, will the adapter work with one of the plugs not connected?
@PeteJohnsMusic Жыл бұрын
It does work with just the MIDI out and in being used as many more modern MIDI keyboards only have one. MIDI doesn't ever send phantom power in my experience, but I'm far from an expert.

Do the MIDI to USB converters generally introduce any lag? It doesn't look like your setup in the video has much lag, if any. But even a small amount can be annoying.

The cheaper ones can introduce quite a lot of latency, but the more advanced and higher quality ones like the Roland are actually surprisingly low latency. 👍
