nord electro 2 64bit USB driver?

Postby phineas » 29 May 2020, 20:17

Is there any way to get a nord electro2 working as a MIDI keyboard/controller with a Windows 10 64bit machine and only a USB cable?

Thanks for the response.
I didn't think so, but was hoping some clever person had made a 3rd party driver.

A cheap $20 MIDI-to-USB cable will work fine, though. :-)

It's not a driver issue, NE2 has no USB MIDI at all (see specs and manual) As analogika said a cheap (but good) MIDI DIN to USB cable/interface will do the job

I picked up a Presonus USB 96 recently for $75. It will take either 1/4" or XLR audio and also MIDI to interface USB to laptop.
