Rating: - never worked
I have repeatedly tried using this with a yamaha keyboard. I rarely have any problem with software and hardware installs, but I have NEVER gotten this to work on my Mac.
Rating: - UNO - be afraid, be very afraid
Whatever batch of these that were available during the Christmas 2008 buying season can not interface any keyboard to any computer without mistakenly converting keyboard strokes into command functions, making the product useless. The m-audio forums are littered with tales of this same failure for multiple keyboard and computer brands. Stay away and be very afraid until M-Audio gets this corrected and makes good on all the duds placed under the Christmas tree this year. Must be a bad run. Earlier serial numbers from a few years ago work fine.
Rating: - Works OK here
Works fine for me with an old Yamaha PSR-500 on my Gentoo Linux desktop PC. The latest kernel (2.6.27) recognizes it as soon as I plug it in. KMidi will play MIDI files on it just fine, and I can record into Rosegarden without problems. I don't seem to be having any of the problems other folks are having with PSR keyboards. Guess I'll have to wait and see how it holds up long-term.
Based on some googling, there seems to be two primary issues with this device: some marginal electrical connectivity that works with some keyboard/controller MIDI outs but not others, and a broken implementation of MIDI input running status. The Linux driver actually compensates for the latter issue. The former is a crap shoot.
Rating: - Very Nice
This product worked as well as promised. I am satisfied with the product. Any person in a "live looping" band will need this product to connect midi devices via usb.
Support via the website is good.
Rating: - MIDI input did not work
DO NOT RECOMMEND - HDOA (half dead on arrival). Got this device, installed it, connected to my Casio WK-3000 keyboard. MIDI output (to keyboard) worked great, input did not work. Since I bought my Casio used, I thought it might be the keyboard. Took me a while to round up another to try (out of town for a while) - but same thing when I did. Bought a new (MUCH cheaper - $10) MIDI USB interface, had in working in two minutes. Unfortunately my return window had expired :(
DO NOT RECOMMEND - there are much cheaper alternatives, and they work!
