Hi,

So I own an old Casio WK-110 keyboard, it says that it has general midi on it. When I tried plugging it in with an old USB-B to USB-A cable to my Mac through a USB hub (since Mac only has USB-C) it would not work with Garageband, and I couldn't see any signs of my Mac receiving anything from the keyboard.

My questions are:

1. Can the old keyboard (which I believe is meant for Windows 98/XP) work with my Mac?
2. Do I just need to buy a new USB-B to USB-C cable and plug it in to my Mac?
3. Do I need to buy a USB-B to MIDI cable and buy an audio interface?

Thank you, and if anything needs clarification I'll reply in the comments!

Note: I have googled it and read the keyboard's manual but I'm still unsure
