Thanks. Yes, I think you are right. The other thing I was thinking is what about those USB-MIDI cable, couldn't it work? At the end of the day, the Blofeld just want MIDI input signal right?Aural Chaos wrote:I think the only way you'll be able to use that keyboard to control the Blofeld (or any other piece of hardware) is by plugging both it and the Blofeld into a computer, and then using a host or MIDI thru type app to route MIDI back through USB to the Blofeld.yotawaves wrote:Hi,
I was planning to buy this synth, but I am not sure what I want to do is possible: I have a USB MIDI keyboard that I bought recently, the Nektar Impact LX49 (very cheap one but it is quite good http://www.nektartech.com/Impact-LX49 (http://www.nektartech.com/Impact-LX49) )
It's a USB MIDI keyboard (not MIDI) so I have to connect it to the computer to play and it is also powered by USB.
You can guess my question, can I connect it to the Waldorf Blofeld USB input to play?
Does it make any sense?
Don't get me started on my opinion of MIDI controllers that lack 5 pin MIDI jacks....
I know it's bad they didn't put a real MIDI connection on that keyboard, but the price is so cheap.
