In order to edit MIDI files, the keyboard must be connected to the PC in any case. To quickly listen to MIDI files at home, the sound via vanBasco plus a suitable Soundfont is sufficient, as described. I always use the vanBasco Player for live performances, but always with the Genos or Tyros5 connected to the PC (notebook/netbook) used via USB-MIDI. But also in all other cases the sound will differ more or less strongly from the sound generated by the keyboard's tone generation. At the latest when S.Art or Mega voices or Revo Drums are used in MIDI files, it becomes critical.
