I have a G4/466 and would like my Yamaha CBX-T3 to work from it. The CBX-T3 has two means of connection:
1 a 'To Host' mini 8-pin serial port 2 a MIDI 5 pin DIN I have looked for USB to MIDI convertors and can find none Any ideas? |

You don't 'convert' USB to midi, you must use a USB midi interface, every manufacturer has one (MOTU, emagic, midiman…)
There are usb to serial adapters, but it's not sure that the CBX is supported. That's the idea
