Computer Keyboard as MIDI controller. Is it possible?

[ALaz502]

Just a general question.

Is it possible to use a computer keyboard as a MIDI controller? Assign different keys to different midi functions and notes.

The only reason I ask, is because I need a VERY simple MIDI controller to lay down simple drum beats and then edit them from the Drum Map Editor in Cubase.

Thanks guys.

nevermind.

I searched this Forum and already found my answer. I really wasn't expecting to.

Oh, I didn't mean it that way, but that's a neat gizmo as well!

What I actually meant was if it was possible to use the actual computer keyboard itself as a midi controller. Not a computer keyboard with a midi controller attached.

But thanks anyways, that's a neat little gizmo!

This is more of what I was looking for.
