Can I connect a MIDI keyboard to my laptop with USB as normal and then use it (with Logic Pro X etc.)
That depends on the connection options of the MIDI keyboard. Newer models have a USB port, older ones only have a MIDI port.
So if the MIDI keyboard has a USB port I can use it without any other software or anything else. Sorry I don't have much idea about.
Maybe drivers are needed, I can't say that, or there's software to program the keyboard…
Of course, the MIDI keyboard alone can't do anything. A sound source is required to be able to reproduce sounds.
If it has a suitable USB port, then you can try it. In this case you will of course need suitable software that processes the MIDI signals.
It may be necessary to install a MIDI driver (latencies and such).
Software in the sense of a music program?
For example.
Okay thanks
