Connecting your device to your computer couldn't be easier. Here's our guide to getting your device working quickly.
Do I need a MIDI cable or a USB cable?
Firstly, check whether your device has a USB connection port.
Most MIDI keyboards made after the year 2000 have USB capability.
But some will only have a MIDI connection port. If this is the case, you will need to purchase a MIDI-to-USB cable.
There are numerous options available on Amazon. We recommend using this cable.
Do I need to install a driver?
Most devices will also require you to download a driver for the device to work.
If you purchased your device from a shop, it might have been included in the box you bought it in.
Or you can usually find your device's driver on the manufacturer's website.
A missing driver may prevent your keyboard from being recognised in the SYNKii classroom. So don't skip this important step!
