Software instrument in the Garageband

Hi, I have a simple question.

Can I use a MIDI keyboard to play the software instrument in the Garageband instead of using the Musical Typing?

Thank you.

How do I connect a digital piano/keyboard to GarageBand and use the built-in voices? Hello! I've been having this issue for a while now, so I figured I'd give this question a shot here. Thing is I bought myself a Casio digital piano with tons of built in voices (organs, strings, synths, etc.) and I want to use these to record music directly (without an external microphone). However, when I connect the keyboard via MIDI to GarageBand, I can only use the GarageBand tones, but not the ones from my piano. Is it possible to play with my keyboard's voices instead of the GarageBand sounds? Or, in any case, do I need any other software to do that? Thanks in advance.

control casio keyboard with garageband I have a Casio CT-x3000 and I would like to send midi notes from Garageband to trigger the keyboard so I can use and hear the sounds from the keyboard. The keyboard only has a USB connection for midi to the computer and I can play the keyboard and it will trigger midi in Garageband, but I want the data to flow in the other direction. Can this be done?

MIDI-signal I have a digital piano (Thomann) with a (so called) USB output. Please see added picture! The connection to my MacBook shall be used by this item: It's said by Thomann that if I play a tune on the piano there will be 'MIDI signals' into the MacBook. Do I dare to try that? Will there be a file generated?
