good product
I'm trying to hook up my Yamaha P120 with my PC.
I've spend about 3 hours now, tried about 10 different
variations of installation method including deleting
all the USB drivers on my PC...
Still can't get it to work.
Not sure if I got the lemon product or if I'm doing something wrong...
It drives me mad now..
What I like about?nice long USB cable that is plug and play.. only If it works!!
Well.. trying to think of other ways to get it to work...
Sent the tech support mail today.. If I don't get the result
back tomorrow.. the one star will stay...


Well got it working in 10 second by exchanging it...
dang... 5 hours wasted... and it was all because of a defective item.
Hate you ... whoever inspected this item...
Well, the sh*ts happens...
It seems like a good product..
Leason learned:
1. don't spent too much time trouble shooting a modern day devices that are suppose to be a plug and play.

2. Guitar Center, well sometimes, sell a defective product (I think what I bought was someone's return)...
But anyway, they are nice folks, I'll continue to use Guitar Center. This is an isolated incident.


Well.. would like to change the stars to 4 but don't know how..
So here it is * * * *

Excellent adapter for a PC and Clavinova Piano
I did setup this adapter on a Windows XP laptop for my daughter.
She is using it with Piano Suite Premiere software and a Clavinova piano.
Excellent compatibility.

don't trust them
i've tried to use this on two macs. terrible results

m-audio does not have forums on their site.

there is a reason. their drivers are unreliable and highly incompatible.

absolutely refuse to provide any documentation nor do they accept returns.

if you value the stability of your computer, stay clear. stay well clear.

so easy to use
I have been using this interface with both a Mac and a PC and it works well with both.Great product!

Great for home use. Install the driver for your Mac!
This is a good adapter for home use. Having been a roadie, I can pretty confidently say the Midisport Uno's build quality isn't roadworthy -- the attached MIDI cables are about as thin as the RCA cables that come with most home audio equipment, nowhere near as tough as patch cords for a stage rig. But the average home user, who's not plugging and unplugging in a hurry and stepping on the equipment and such, should have no worries. I have one, and it works fine.

A note about appearance: My Uno's body (the oval part, smaller than an average computer mouse) is a deep translucent blue, rather than the opaque color in the current photo here on Amazon. Also, the cables are all one color, black, though the IN and OUT plugs are clearly labeled in molded lettering. There are three green LEDs: one that lights up when the computer recognizes the adapter, one for MIDI in signals, and one for MIDI out -- handy for troubleshooting.

I bought the Uno to connect my Roland alphaJuno-2 to my PowerBook and play with GarageBand. I took it out of the packaging (a rare treat: a molded clamshell-type plastic package that isn't heat-sealed, so it doesn't have to be cut to shreds to open) and hooked it up, and nothing happened. I initially thought that Mac OS X would recognize it automatically, so it took me a few minutes to realize I needed to install the driver software. Although there are drivers on the included CD-ROM, I downloaded the latest version from the manufacturer's web site, installed, and the Uno instantly lit up and GarageBand informed me (because I already had the Roland powered up) that a MIDI device was now connected. It's worked flawlessly since.

Simple to use; no extra cables to attach -- I think this is the perfect USB MIDI adapter for GarageBand users or anyone else connecting one MIDI keyboard to a computer at home. ... Read more
