Bernie,

When it comes to midi, it doesn't make any difference what midi software you use. Midis will work on any instrument that is midi compatible. I use digital orchestrator pro. Many people seem to like Cakewalk, but give your "midi quest" a try. It's not too difficult to learn and I'm sure this will work fine for you. I've been remixing midis for about 3 years and have done over 800 songs. I have a Technics KN6500. If you have any more questions, either post or email.

PS. When you load the midi file into the keyboard, select the gm --> nx conversion. This will change your midi instruments into Technics instruments for a much better sound and control.
