Does anyone know if a keyboard controller that has a USB connection built-in can have a S-pin DIN MIDI connection added to it and if so how would that be done ?</div>

I have some older 5-pin MIDI DIN modules & two newer desktop hardware synths that have the 5-pin DIN style MIDI connectors built in along with built-in USB connections but I prefer to use the 5-pin MIDI DIN connections for the sake of end to end compatibility
as some of the older modules are pre-USB devices. <br>
