This question is not so much about "stand alone" synths but a MIDI controller

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I bought an M-Audio Keystation to control some stuff via MIDI (the old DIN style) stuff I am using or plan to acquire. I can't seem to get an answer from M-Audio direct, so I thought I'd ask it here. The question: Can you run the Keystation getting it's power from a USB wallwort (charger) instead of a old style 9vdc power adapater AND still use the 5 pin MIDI port? Seems like a simple Yes or No would have sufficed from M-Audio :-) Anyways, if anyone has tried this, feel free to share.</p> <h2>From the User Manual: Tech Specs</h2> <p>Power: via USB or DC 9 V, 500 mA center-positive power supply(sold separately) - not required for use with a PC or Mac</p> <p>Dimensions: 39.2” x 7.44&quot; x 2.68&quot; (995 mm x 189 mm x 68 mm)</p> <p>Weight: 9.0 lbs. (4.1 kg)</p> <p>Transport and Directional Controls: Mackie Control, Mackie/HUI, or MIDI</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Jmneedham"> /u/Jmneedham </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/va3f8f/this_question_is_not_so_much_about_stand_alone/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/va3f8f/this_question_is_not_so_much_about_stand_alone/">[comments]</a></span>
