Which Midi connection are you all using?

Which Midi connection are you all using?

2003-01-07 by underneathheaven <realvast@swbell.net>

OK I'm a little confused about the ports we're supposed to connect 
into.  First off, I have the 15 pin game port and a 9 pin serial 
port.  So which should I use?  The guy at the music shop said the 15 
pin game port should be first choice.  He also said I would need 
some sort of duel stereo connection thing...any idea what that was?  
Anyways, I'm getting an extra long midi cable and the stereo thing 
all for $40.00 in a few mins.  Sound good?  Help?  Thanks!

Andreas,  you said your using the midi in/out.  Does this mean your 
plugged into both in AND out and plugged into your 
soundcard/joystick port?  Thanks!

And if you ever encounter problem try to switch the in and out connections. With my cable (no brand) I had to put the "In" of the cable into the "out" of the module and the "out" cable into the "in" of the module...
