Please help me with setting up Maschine, midi keyboard, S4, etc.

[Skerrplunk]

I currently have Maschine sync'd with S4/TP2 and have 2 Midi Fighter Pro's as well. I have 2 powered USB hubs. One running S4 and Maschine and the other running the MFP's.

I have the S4 and Maschine hooked up with 2 MIDI cables.

If I get a small midi keyboard like the LPK25, is there a way for me to integrate that into my set up without having to disconnect the S4/Maschine midi cables to then use the midi connects on Maschine to connect to the LPK25?

Couldn't you just plug it into a spare USB port?

[Skerrplunk]

That would be great, but I thought you had to connect the midi keyboard to Maschine via midi cables... no?

Can you just go into the USB hub and then assign it virtually?

the LPK25 doesn't even have midi ports. But yes, USB should be fine.
