Hey
Ok, I want to start using MIDI. I have a computer which will be able to handle it fine (PC Celeron 400, 196meg ram, 30gigs, etc) and I also have a somewhat classy Yamaha keyboard with midi in/out ports.
So.. the question is, what sort of hardware do I need to be able to use programs such as (for example) Encore or Finale and take the input from my classy Yamaha keyboard?
My soundcard is a SB Live! and it doesnt have the same sort of port on it as the 'midi in/out' on the keyboard.
Please give any suggestions as to what I need to be able to use my keyboard to input music into the computer.
Thanks
