chenGOD Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 So I've got this old midiman. It's old. It's got a serial interface. I wonder. If i buy a serial-usb adapter, would it work? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ten fingers ten toes Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Yes, I think it would, provided M-Audio still has a driver for it somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted May 5, 2007 Author Share Posted May 5, 2007 will it need a driver? It says on the box compatible with all Macintosh computers...plus this is from before M-audio owned them i think... it also says: compuserve: midibven forum (section 2). God it's a piece of ancient history. Worth a shot though...it'll still work with the MacPLus that I know is lying around back home. Gotta get my dad to bring it over when he comes to visit..

ten fingers ten toes Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 I would assume it needs a driver as no matter what the Mac isn't realyl going to know what to do with this newfound signal on its USB port without one. How many ins/outs does it have? You know these aren't very expensive new, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted May 5, 2007 Author Share Posted May 5, 2007 it's a 1x1 interface, yes I know they're cheap, but since I have a total of 1 MIDI instruments if I can spend 5 bucks on a converter rather than 50 on a new interface... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, although 1x1's are more like $40, but anyway let us know how it works out, Im curious to see if the timing stays ok through the converter.
