I am not sure I got your question correctly (sorry, English is not my mother tongue), but if your query is to get Midi to USB cable, yes, it does exist like this one -

Hi MIke.

As Mike said, works OK.

Try to find a Midi to USB dedicated converter like my ROMIO II. Has two midi outs and two Midi ins connected thru a converter to one USB jack. Works Great.
