Cable noob, does USB Type B send audio and MIDI, or just MIDI

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Hi! I am looking to buy the Yamaha Motif Rack Tone Generator to use in production, this one synth is currently on the top of my want list<br/> The Yamaha Motif has a USB type B port right right next to the MIDI ports on the back<br/> images: <a href="https://imgur.com/a/FbpeqdM">https://imgur.com/a/FbpeqdM</a></p> <p>I am just wondering, what information exactly is sent thru the USB type B port?<br/> Is it only ever used as an alternative MIDI in? I gotta buy another set of stereo cables for it right?<br/> Or, do I get the bonus of it transmitting audio as well (like, another audio input device shows up on my Mac as well after plugging it in)</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/wafflesmogumogu"> /u/wafflesmogumogu </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/javzgy/cable_noob_does_usb_type_b_send_audio_and_midi_or/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/javzgy/cable_noob_does_usb_type_b_send_audio_and_midi_or/">[comments]</a></span>
