I'm looking to buy a radias-r and a midi keyboard like the m-audio keystation 32 mini. As far as i know the only connection the midi keyboard has is a USB port. Can i use a usb connector to play the radias through this keyboard?

so i'd have to buy a keyboard with midi inputs right?
is that the only connection that the radias-r accepts for keyboards?

No, you need a keyboard or MIDI controller with MIDI
outputs.
Go from MIDI OUT on your keyboard to MIDI IN on the Radias-R. I'd highly recommend
reading the manual that comes with your Radias.

You could route a midi connection through your daw. plug both the radias-r and midi keyboard into your computer via usb, start your daw, and make the necessary adjustments. A generic midi keyboard can be used as a master to control various midi capable instruments this way, without the need for midi cables.
