but I've had issues with it and other keyboards where it would not transmit or receive unless the keyboard's USB was plugged in as well

so I don't really know what features to look for in a MIDI cable, but I plugged my keyboard into my Mac and it worked, no drivers, no fuss

so you can use this simple wire instead of buying a usb ready keyboard/controller.

I immediately ran to my closest MIDI compatible keyboard and plugged it into pro tools to see if there were going to be any problems with the vendor that was selected.

, it goofed with the sounds on my keyboard, not allowed them to play properly, but then it could have been the on board computer doing that to the keyboard, since it was made in 1999.Whatever your musical keyboard is like

I have a nice keyboard and wanted to use the program on my computer to basically record what I did

PSR-240 keyboard into my PC as a controller for VST (virtual) instruments and it works fine so far

I tried everything but the "IN" light keeps blinking yellow now and the keyboard won't play into the program or through the speakers like before.

I have an older midi ready keyboard but to do quick recording sessions I needed to drop down to a USB connection

Works as expected, providing flawless MIDI communication between a cheap Yamaha keyboard and Garage band on my MacBook Pro

This gets confused by "glitches" (e.g. when your keyboard turns on) and won't work correctly until you disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.

Either the cables are marked wrong or my keyboard is marked wrong

My WINDOWS Xp MIDI card did not recognize the cable either, so I will have to wait until I invest in a better suited MIDI keyboard with up-to-date music software that uses DAW programs.

No loss of data or volume that I could tell, and both my midi controller and keyboard worked with the cables - surprising, considering my concert piano keyboard is at least 15 years old and my laptop is a crappy little Compaq with Windows 7

I have an old Casio WK-3000, which is far from an expensive or professional keyboard, but this combination gets the job done

This device worked seamlessly out of the packaging connecting my 88 key Casio keyboard to my laptop, I had no issues

I purchased this for use with an inexpensive Yamaha music keyboard and an older Macbook laptop computer (pre-Intel)

I didn't pay very much but it was suggested that I buy it along with the Akai Pro LPK25 25-key Ultra-portable USB Mini Keyboard.

Had my doubts but the computer recognized the keyboard and the system works perfect.

Bought the E-MU cord which works perfectly and immediately threw this one in the trash.
