E-MU Systems were able to connect to SGI. I have an Emulator IV Keyboard from 1996 and the manual explains how to connect the keyboard to SCSI devices (it uses SCSI for CD-Roms and Hard Drives). One of the options in the setup menu is called "SGI on SCSI Bus". This was checked if your music keyboard was connected to a SCSI chain with an SGI computer attached so that it allows 2 SCSI masters on the same chain.
