Connecting a MIDI device

You can connect a MIDI (musical instrument digital interface) device to the
game controller port that comes on some models of the PC Compatibility
Card. To connect a MIDI device, you need a Sound Blaster–compatible
MIDI-to-joystick adapter (available from your computer dealer). For
instructions on connecting devices to the joystick port, see the next section,
“Connecting a PC Game Controller.”
