You should also be able to use that drop list and select your USB MIDI cable (or whatever it's named) as your playback device. That's what you'll need to do in order to hear files played back through your keyboard.

1/ While I am able (again) to record on the computer the notes that I play on the keyboard, this process starts with a long and rather unpleasant stuttering noise (a bit like random Morse code but much harsher) and I would like to know how to get rid of it.
This is most likely an issue with having the GS Wavetable set as the Playback Device. See if this problem persists after selecting your USB MIDI cable as the Playback device. If you still hear unpleasant noise, or a strange echo or chorus-like effect when you're recording, review the section in Help/Users Guide and use the Index to look up "echo".

2/ I am still unable to play MIDIs from the computer on the keyboard.
You can use the Setup/Quick MIDI dialog to select the USB MIDI cable as your default playback device.

ttfn,
Sherry
