I’ve recently bought a Evolution MK449C USB MIDI Keyboard but suddenly realised my USB ports are the older variety. I’m upgrading to a new PC so it’s not the end of the world if it doesn’t work but that will take a few months.
So do midi keyboards require USB 2.0 or is 1.0 ok?
I don’t wana have to wait to use it you see.
midi data doesn’t even come anywhere CLOSE to the bandwidth limit for usb 1.1 … usb is measured in megabytes per second. all midi does is send note on/off commands, that couldn’t be more than a couple of KB. remember that midi was invented in the 80’s and hasn’t changed since then.
