Most synths and keyboards have MIDI over USB nowadays.

Intriguing. I was looking at the user manual just now, and it seems like a USB-MIDI interface would do the trick. I've seen those things sold for $20 or $30 on Amazon. Might be a fun weekend activity to try.

Be careful :) If it sticks you'll lose half your life! But you'll have a lot of fun. Good luck!

As far as ways to lose half of one's life, playing music doesn't sound too bad. Thanks for the advice!
