I have a Yamaha DGX-660 keyboard and a Yamaha PSR-550 keyboard arranger. The PSR-550 is an older model about 20 years old, not the newer S550. I want the 660 to control the rhythm sounds from the 550. I can already play both the rhythm and the instrumental accompianment from the 550 through the speakers of the 660 by means of a simple hook-up phone/output on the 550 to aux in on the 660. But the one thing I cannot do is change the chords when I play the 660. If I set the 550 on a C chord, it stays on a C chord even when I play a different chord on the 660. One solution would be to set the keyboards up so I play the 550 with my left hand --- where I can change the chords as I play --- while playing the 660 with my right hand. I could probably do that but it would be awkward to do so. I am not able to establish MIDI connectivity between the two instruments because the 550 has the older style 5-pin MIDI connection while the 660 has a USB MIDI. I have been unable to find a converter cable. Is there any device that would allow me to put the two keyboards together with the 660 as the master and the 550 as the slave?
