Hey, I need a midi driver so I can connect my Casio WK-110 to my mac. After a bunch of googling, I could only find the one from Google code, and that one didn't work. So does anyone know of a different driver?
Maybe you could contact this guy at his blog. Scroll down to his entry "The Piano Man". He wrote the following

" I was able to find some dude on the internet who created some Mac drivers for this keyboard so it definitely works with Garageband. "

Maybe he can send you a link to "some dude" for a driver.
I did find it.
A few months ago I put this on my Macbook but I forgot where I got it when I wanted to put it on the iMac. That's why I came here. I can't believe with the popularity of Casio and Mac with musicians that this is so difficult to find. I hope it works for you and other future searchers .
I found the link to the driver here.

and it linked to here where the driver actually is.

I'm not very savvy with internal workings of Mac's but I think you need to be a little carful where and how you instal it.
Their instructions are to put it in the "Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers folder in your home folder or your system's hard-drive."
What worked for me was;
From the desktop (where the file was after download) I dragged the file into my Midi Drivers folder that's in the Audio folder that's in the Library folder that's in the Hard Drive , not the little house.
so the sequence is HD>Library>Audio>Midi Drivers.
Then , just to play it safe I restarted the computer.
I don't know anything about the Casio WK-110 but have you opened the "Audio MIDI Setup" application (probably in your utilities folder) to see if it can be added or recognized as a MIDI device?
I tried the Casio driver from Google which is as far as I know, the only one available. When I installed the driver, it wouldn't show up in Garageband or in the Audio/Midi Setup utility.
Did you ever find it?
I found one awhile back for my macbook. It work with my Privia 320. I'd like to put it in my imac but I don't remember where I found it??? duh
After you've "installed" the driver, should garageband just recognize the keyboard automatically when I plug it in? Or do I have to do something else to make it work?
