 instant midi connection for Win7 X64, By
Verified Purchase(What’s this?)

Having read many of the reviews of this little midi interface I decided to buy one. I was a bit worried about the product working with my Windows 7 X64 because of conflicting reports about 64 bit systems. To cut to the point . . . I plugged it into an old Casio keyboard and into my laptop’s USB and my computer found drivers that worked instantly with my midi music software.
Remember that the ‘MIDI out’ plug on the product mates with the ‘MIDI in’ on the Keyboard and the ‘MIDI in’ plug mates with the MIDI out socket on the Keyboard. It makes sense that the output of one is the input to the other and vice versa. 0

 Works ONLY if you DON’T use the pedal on your keyboard,
This review is from: Generic USB MIDI Cable Converter PC to Music Keyboard [Electronics] (Electronics)
Okay, I bought this item to hook up my keyboard with garageband, and at first, when I set it up, it didn’t work at all, but then I realized what was wrong. The cables are marked MIDI OUT and MIDI IN. The one marked MIDI OUT goes into the IN, and MIDI IN goes into the OUT. SADLY THERE IS ANOTHER PROBLEM, it does work, but when I use the pedal for the keyboard, it registers it as another note, so I can’t use the pedal. So if you are just using the keyboard, this should work, but if you like to use the pedal like I do, you’ll have to pay more for a better one. hope this helps.

Another gamble on cheap Chinese junk – and another loss.
The shipping was fantastic, only four total days to receive (including weekend days), but met with sheer and utter failure upon implementation. I read many of the other reviewers stating that it didn’t work, which is usually because people incorrectly hook them up (the labeling on the devices and wires themselves can be misleading because the "out" actually goes to the "in" on the device, but even swapping cables, trying three different computers, four different Windows operating systems (XP, Vista, 7, OSX), and two different ecosystems (Mac and Win) – NO LOVE. I plugged in the dollar (yup, you read that correctly, ) cord that I had to purchase at Best Buy (which, is almost identical in every way to this adapter) and everything lights up instantly. All of the OS’s recognize it immediately and the lights on the adapter cable illuminate as expected. Bent over and lubed up… 0 |
