Questions about Cakewalk (Roland) A-500S

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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?

Best regards
