R3 Question about midi

Post by dlroto »

Hello everyone,
I'm about to buy a Korg R3, I just have a question??? I want to know if I want to hook it up to my computer, what do I need to buy??? I know it has USB, but through the usb will I be able to play as if were midi, or do I have to buy a special cable to play it that way??? I want to us eit in Fruity loops and I want to make sure I have everything I need.
Thanx a million

The USB connection will work as a MIDI interface.

It will not transfer audio, you still need to patch the R3's audio outputs to your computer's audio inputs.

If your computer currently does not support stereo line level audio, you'll need to buy an audio interface of some kind or upgrade your sound card.
