Not to mention the hassle of adequately linking the same signal traces to any accompanying software, in order to achieve better control over the physical equipment. Working with MIDI controllers on multiple channels can pose serious challenges, especially when it comes to splitting or merging the signal.

It's about the money-it's cheaper to leave out the chipset and software and force us to use the computer to spit back a musical hairball instead of being consistent with connectors.

USB and midi are both serial protocols but with different command sets so it gets pretty hairy if you want to roll and smoke yer own.

There is a midi controller chip called a UART which is at the heart of a full midi in/out/thru port, with corresponding embedded code which is what the kenton probably is inside. If I were even more crazy, I would think up a way to convert a USB out connection to a true midi din in/out without spending 200 bucks on a Kenton. There are a couple of CZ230s that looked interesting with midi DINs but that's about all. Was going for a CZ-101 or other din midi small Casio, but almost impossible to find and the CZs are way too many bucks on EBaby. I think I'll plug it into the XW and PX-350, start diddling the knobs around and see what happens (sounds obscene I know-sorry).
It's a Miditech "Midicontrol" with 12 programmable analog control knobs. Just a quick addition to this post about USB only keyboards-I just bought another older midi controller (49-key this time, I need at least 49 so I have more possibiiities of hitting the right ones once in awhile) with a single DIN midi out connection and a 15-pin (!) soundcard connector-with the cable-how's that for old school.
