USB cable be included?

Have never bought any hardware online, hope to purchase AMIDI keyboard from thomann.de, so my question is: will the USB cable be included or should I buy it separately? Sorry if my question is too newbie

What's it matter? You live in Moscow, right (says so next to your name), I'm sure you can find a computer store there, and a USB cable is like 2 U.S. dollars, you must be able to afford that...

Sure i can but it might be a special cable, not a standard one, no?

If it's a special cable it is definitely included

A USB cable is a USB cable. If it was a 'special cable' then it wouldn't be a USB cable.

The "U" does stand for "Universal" I believe.

Well there are USB A to B which are what most consumers refer to as "standard" but there are also the very common USB A to USB Mini B (often the cable with USB hard drives, phones etc), then USB A to Mini B Type 2 (different smaller B connector often used with cameras and phones).

For most audio interfaces it's A to B, but some do use the mini's too.

USB A TO B

USB A TO B Mini

USB A TO B Mini (Type 2)

Just can't remember ever getting hardware w/out the plug.

Yes, I know very well about mini-USB and micro-USB, but they're still standard cables that you would be able to buy from any computer shop, not exactly a special type of cable...

should be a USB cable! some time the USB cable are some times to short for what u may want to do so u may want to buy a longer one!
just my 2 cents!
