I have a MIDI hook-up from my piano keyboard to my computer. How do I get it to work?

Answer 1

You need software; for example - music authoring software which can control the keyboard from the computer through the MIDI port. You can write music on the computer, and rather than using the computer's sound card to reproduce the notes, the software will send instruction through the MIDI port and the keyboard will play. This is a simple explanation of the setup.
