 Stuck notes with UNO on a Roland keyboard August 14, 2006
When I upgraded to a new WinXP64-bit computer, there was no MIDI socket on the back of the sound card, so I couldn't use my music keyboard anymore for my arranging work in Finale.
I was looking for a USB device to connect a Roland A-37 keyboard to my Dell computer.
Software installation was easy on the first try.
However, the device had a problem: there were repeated stuck notes (ciphers) where I had to re-press the key on the Roland to make the sound stop. After a few minutes of this, I started looking for another solution, which I found in the EDIROL UM-1ex, built by Roland.
The UM-1ex worked flawlessly on the first try.
If you have a different keyboard, the UNO might work for you; it didn't work for me with a Dell computer and Roland A-37 keyboard.
 Doesn't work with Yamaha August 14, 2006

Doesn't work with Yamaha keyboards, including my P140. Waste of time. The new driver on their website isn't helpful, either.

I was soo excited when I got the cable! But when I installed it on my PC, an alert box opened up saying that the driver was not fully compatible with Microsoft Windows XP...even though on the package it says it is...your product might not be...I brought up the Micro.Windows Help window and it said to make sure that the packaging has the Microsoft ceal saying that the product was tested with Microsoft Windows XP...and well the package didnt...now I'm going to have to look for another cable....

I unwrapped my new Uno, plugged it in, ran "Audio MIDI Setup", and Uno was recognized immediately; no drivers needed. Then added my MIDI keyboard (Yamaha PSR-270). There are no problems sending or receiving MIDI between my keyboard and computer. The Uno works as advertised.
 Works great or not at all June 3, 2006

I bought the Midisport Uno a few days ago in hopes that it would replace my 15-pin midi connection I have in the back of my computer (with which I have had no problems, I was just trying to free up the PCI slot it was occupying). Anyway, I have since tested it with two different keyboards, a Yamaha PSR-273 and a Casio CTK-471.
#1) My main concern was that there would be latency issues. This was not the case at all. Rather, I never experienced a single problem with latency.
#2) It worked flawlessly with the Casio keyboard, I couldn't have been more satisfied with it in that respect.
#3) It worked horribly with my Yamaha PSR-273. Imagine using it underwater, or after bashing it with a hammer. Completely inoperable with this keyboard.
I called M-Audio's tech support line, and they quickly admitted that the device doesn't work with Yamaha PSR keyboards. He also mentioned that they don't work with another Yamaha model line (other than PSR), but he claimed not to be sure as to which one. He suggested I buy a Midisport 1x1 as it has none of the known compatibility issues that the Uno has, but I have yet to test it.
Bottom line: If you're not using a Yamaha keyboard, you shouldn't have any problems. If you ARE using a Yamaha keyboard, it's very likely the Uno isn't going to work for you (100% likely if it's a PSR). If you are willing to use a PCI-slot-based piece of hardware, I suggest a cheap soundcard with a joystick (15-pin) port in conjunction with this set of cables: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008VF52/sr=8-4/qid=1149323626/ref=pd_bbs_4/104-2313201-5844738?%5Fencoding=UTF8
If you're using a Yamaha keyboard but you still want to connect via USB, you apparently have to get the Midisport 1x1 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006I5HD/ref=sr_11_1/104-2313201-5844738?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=11091801
Hope this helps.
