Using your 'keyboard' as a Keyboard with Cubase SX??

A friend is interested in purchasing Cubase Sx to start to learn to make his own music and he has asked for my help.
The only thing is he doesnt have a midi controller and wants to know if he can actually use his normal QWERTY keyboard to play notes.
I have absolutely no idea if this is possible - I know you can use the piano roll to draw notes but is there a VST or something within Cubase to do this without him shelling out for a controller?
Cheers guys,

if his keyboard has midi out ... like a plug in the back of the keyboard
then just get midiman 1x1 usb
and u be in bussines
cubase will pick up the signal from the midiman ...that picks up from the keyboard.. u can load up a VST and be jaming in real time
only maybe the cpu lag will make things laggie |

You'll need a soundcard that supports ASIO 2 drivers if you want to do it in real-time.
Using old drivers or an old soundcard will delay the signals with about a second.. |

I have bomes mouse keyboard, along with a virtual Midi driver (Midi OX I think). You need a virtual midi driver for bomes mouse keyobard to be able to send midi out to Cubase, as it doesn't do it on it's own. |

no one above has still answered his question. This is a MOUSE-keyboard, not a Keyboard-keyboard!
I am also wondering, Is there a program/plugin for Cubase for playing the a "virtual" keyboard on the PC keyboard. (Like good old SoundTracker / MadTracker on Amiga/PC, f.ex;) |

Bome's Mouse Keyboard V2.00 beta 6
==================================
Welcome to Bome's Mouse Keyboard !
OVERVIEW
This program primarily simulates a MIDI keyboard which you can play
with the mouse or the computer keyboard.
:rolleyes:
Then just get a virtual midi cable to make it work in Reason, Cubase whatever. It works in Reason for me. |
