Help on MIDI wiring

Hi all,

I have a home recording studio already setup, including a Roland Octa-Capture audio interface and a Nord stage piano. The Nord is linked to the audio interface both in audio and MIDI (in and out). Now I have an additional MIDI keyboard that I want to use as a basic controller for my DAW and as a convenient keyboard for small jobs and VST controlling.

My audio interface only has one MIDI in and one MIDI out sockets. Is there a way to have both keyboards connected at the same time or will I have to unplug each time I want to switch from one to the other?
 
Nope, but actually I figured it out. I wasn't sure whether MIDI signals could go through USB but they can, so I configured the second keyboard in USB and that works fine. Thanks anyway.
