Akai LPK25 keyboard has USB MIDI out, but the Korg NTS-1 only has regular MIDI in. The little board in the middle acts as a USB host for the Akai and MIDI source for the Korg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I modified gdsports’ design very slightly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Instead of using a 74AHCT125 Logic level converter and driver, I used a FET-based SparkFun Logic Level Converter<\/a><\/li>

    And it works!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
