RE: [DTXpress] MIDI cable with USB

2002-03-11 by Brow, Paul [LTS]

Midi via USB is the 'modern' way to achieve this anyway - it is reliable and usually very easy to set up.
I use one of the first units around - the Steinberg 2in 2out midi to USB box - works very well indeed.

The only (affordable) option is to purchase a MIDI to USB cable.  Has anyone in the group tried this set up--it is a real "pig" to configure?
