Well I am not a midi specialist, but from what I understand, both methods are just connections, and all the resources depend on the instrument you have and the midi sequencer you use. After all, both methods can send midi data back and forth and allow the use of soundfonts via external programs... But we can wait for a more accurate responce from the people who deal with midi for a long time...
Good luck, André. ----- Original Message ----- From: David (Mr Music) To: QWS list Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2012 12:38 PM Subject: QWS List Question about midi: usb vs midi connection on keyboard Hi I used to link my keyboard to the pc using the midi in-out ports. I now have a connection to the pc using a usb port on my keyboard. Is there any difference between using midi in-out ports on a keyboard vs using a usb out on the keyboard. Is there any functionality or performance capability loss? Thanks David -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by Pinpoint Securemail, and is believed to be clean.
