Hi all I am interested in buying a midi keyboard plus some "device to get midi signal on my computer". I was looking on the roland/edirol website, since I heard that hw from that brand is usually well supported by Linux, when I found the Cakewalk A-500S USB Midi Keyboard, that seems quite interesting to me. Does anyone own one? If so, I'd like to ask the owner(s) some details about the compaitibility of this device with Linux, if everything works well or there are any known issues / lacks of functionality; I see an USB connector on the side: when connecting to a computer, I guess that it should be recognised directly as a Midi device? Or I need a USB Midi interface, like the UM-1G or similar?
