What is a USB Driver?
A USB driver is software that acts as a go-between in
transferring data between computer applications (such as
recording software and sequencer software) and the USB device
when the computer and USB device are connected using a USB
cable.
The USB driver transmits data from the applications to the USB
device, and conversely, passes messages from the USB device to
the applications.
