Actually I have a cable that has a bigger jack on the one side and that small one on the other side, but yes, you can use that jack adapter from bigger to smaller or the other way around.

I have a cable that goes from my keyboard into a USB port on my computer, is there any good way to record that way? Or should I buy a different cable? :P

I've tried with cubase, but it converts all my sounds into piano, and I don't want that...

That's a MIDI to host cable. You transfer MIDI signal that way. It's used
for studio recording in programs like cubase, nuendo etc.

You record your MIDI track and then you select a VST to emulate the sound.
If you want to record directly what you play use plain audio cables. One side in your "Headphones output" on your keyboard, and the other side in your audio card "input" (mostly blue colored)

Aha, OK. So either I need to have something that converts the midi into my desired sound, or I need to get another cable.

Then I know, thanks

Like I said... cubase and nuendo have that or you import some VSTs inside and emulate the recorded midi signals with it's sound engine
