Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By Tay Thu Sep 28, 2006 11:28 pm
IM TRYING TO CONNECT MY Yamaha Dgx-505 KEYBOARD to my mpc 2000xl but the keyboard only has a usb port for a midi out. I saw simular cables like this that go from midi to usb

http://www.musiciansfriend.com/document?cpd=0OEY&doc_id=99371&g=rec&base_pid=332007&index=0

but they have drivers, so I'm not sure they will work. I guest my question is there some kind of interface or adapter I can use to synch the keyboard to my mp. Or am I just a$$ out with this keyboard

I've been looking everywhere for an answer but can't seem to find one

Anything needing drivers will not work.

It doesn't have a midi in and out, all it has is a usb output, No Midi.... well I guess not to hardware anyway.

run USB through a computer then to the mpc so you can controll modules in reason for example
