Your DB15 to DIN only needs the output circuit. Feel free to use a TTL chip for the buffer, or even a transistor based emitter follower (no collector resistor, something like 80 ohm emitter resistor, 5V supply voltage, 220 ohm resistor to the output). Nice, thanks! So I'll just use my 74LS00 (I …

The bargain basement USB MIDI adapters are very often incomplete, sometimes without an opto-isolater. They can be fixed, however. I tried it, yeah :) Furthermore, they have a glitchy UART which requires a driver fix to work around. I'm not aware of what's available for Windows, but the Linux driver …
