Will that do the exact same quality job as the M-Audio UNO? I would 
rather buy something cheaper than the UNO, because it costs $60.00 
Canadian (before taxes), and I'll likely only ever use it once (to 
upgrade the XL-7s OS). Also, do you have any brands/models of serial 
to midi cables that I could search for? (I tried using Google, but I 
can only find cables with one MIDI cable end - we need cables with 
both IN and OUT, correct?)
