Vortex Sound Research

Heya, so recently I found a working Yamaha DX7 for sale near me for almost nothing, I'm buying it within this week but I wanted to clear some questions I got up before biting the bullet, Biggest question I've got is, would it work as a midi controller with one of those cheap midi USB cables? By this I only mean the simple stuff like receiving keyboard notes and stuff, not that that'd be my main use, but it'd make it a much more worthy purchase, thanks for answering!
