Connecting midi keyboard to imac

[ipoddin]

The link leads to nothing, because the session timed out. But I think you want something like this. (http://www.emusicgear.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=UX16) But I don't know for sure because I'm looking for the same thing and this is what I found.

Does anyone know if this will work? Or of any other products?

Or this. (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00007JRBM/qid=1074952152/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/104-8006398-2446361?v=glance&s=electronics) The first review is by someone using Panther, a 12" Powerbook, and GarageBand. They gave it five stars.

Sweet. Y'all just saved me a night of web mining. That last item is the exact interface I bought for my keyboard.

Thanks,
