I have been out of touch for a while, and someone told me the following: In the "old" days, to get your computer to play MIDI, you needed a MIDI CARD connected to your computer, and this card connected to the round mide plug and went into your synthesizer, drum machine etc.... NOW.....I understand all you need is a USB port, and you can go directly from your USB port to your MIDI device. Is this true? Is it this easy now? Thanks Chaz
