Okay, so I am old school and record my backing track through my PA 4X and MIDI it to my TASCAM DP24 and dump tracks one at a time and then build more tracks from there live...Been working this way since the 1990's with my old reliable ENSONIQ VFX-SD

Going to FINALLY move to my PROTOOLS i bought 2 years ago full time and buying the "Automated Avid Pro Tools S3 Control Surface" which has no "MIDI", rather USB.

Is it the same thing? Just want to make sure my tracks will sync up for dumping on USB the same as MIDI.

Any help here would be great
