Just as a side note - just because the USB cable works with a thumb drive or a hard drive does not necessarily mean that it will work just as well for MIDI, especially if an adapter is in the mix. MIDI has much tighter timing requirements and less tolerance for data loss. For example, I tried connecting my PC to my keyboard in the other room using a USB extension cable and the second I went through the extension cable, the MIDI stopped working. So not every cable or adapter is made equal.
