Usb Midi Interface

[12 VDC] This little Midi Box is a welcome addition to my Midi Configuration Studio needs. At first I was reluctant to purchase it because I felt it was a bit expensive for a Midi Interface... but it is worth it. Here's why Pros Excellent Build Quality, solid top grade materials and it looks good Works without the need for driver installation, so easy plug and play 8 Standard 5 Pin Midi Ports Plus 3 USB 3.0 Ports and a USB Host Port which gives me lots of options for all of my gear Automatic signal detection is great. Allows each MIDI port to work as an input or output LED Indicator Lights let you know what's going on In Standalone (without a computer) there are 3 modes with a dedicated Mode Selector, 1 Midi In to 7 Outs, MIDI thru and MIDI merge configurations You can use it as a Stand Alone or USB Host mode Ships with USB Cable and 5V Power Supply, yes they include a power supply! Cons Price but NOT really this is one well built, powerful Midi Interface that is loaded with Connection and Interface Options. I think it is worth the money for what it offers.

[USB Bus Power] I was excited for this audio interface to come out because of the two headphone outputs for monitoring, multiple output port options on the back, in-built additional USB-A ports, and that it operates by USB-C. Also I heard great reviews online. The in-built usb ports are great, so that I don't have to have as many adapters from USB C to USB A for my laptop with other devices. I first heard of Arturia when I was in the market for a midi keyboard, and so far, they do not disappoint. A massive bonus for me is how this interface is much smaller than I expected, which is amazing. Plus, it comes with power plugs for different countries. It doesn't HAVE to be plugged in to power (unless you want to use the interface's additional in-built usb ports for something like a midi keyboard), so that is nice, but also good to have the ability for extra usb ports. It would be even better if it didn't have the need to be plugged in to get power to the usb ports to power my midi keyboard, but I can live with that compromise because I think that's just literally a physical necessity (I don't think there's anything out there at the time of writing that could do that without a power supply). The small form factor is great for me since I travel a lot, and I don't expect to need to replace this interface for a long time since it's perfect for my needs.

[1x USB-A (2.0)] This might be the perfect USB MIDI cable. Highly recommended and well worth the money. Most of those cheap commodity USB MIDI interface cables you see elsewhere fail to pass large SysEx messages (and, by large, some can't even handle messages more than 100 bytes or so without truncation/corruption, or even failing to send at all). As SysEx was important to me (and not to mention a standard feature of MIDI that any interface should be able to handle) I did some extensive loopback testing with this interface... It passed every single SysEx message without error from 2 bytes up to 20K (and I have no doubt it could handle any size). Other pros for me about this cable include compact, solid construction, no MIDI wart box in the middle, and the clever auto-detect feature where either MIDI port can function a MIDI IN or MIDI OUT depending what you plug it into. Just plug it in and it figures it out, now that's cool! The materials are high quality (fabric covered leads) and this 6 foot length (each MIDI port has its own, full-length lead!) is generous and practical. Highly recommended!

[USB Bus Power] A good Midi interface device to connect the keyboard with the PC through MIDI ports and use Midi apps.

[LEMO (SMPTE)] I did purchase two of this cables to connect my monitors to Liquid Saffire 56 interface. Mogami never disappoint me, all cables in my studio are Mogami. The only MIDI cable I use Comprehensive because Mogami don't make MIDI.

[6.25 lb] Though I could use a wired MIDI interface, having a bluetooth version makes the setup time minimal to interact with my computer or iPad. Not having to do any work to start sequencing makes this tool a joy.

[USB Bus Power] We are now short a drummer on occasion at church and so I needed to do drum tracks. There are Roland drums at church and I also have a Roland kit at home. I have a nice Steinberg audio interface for my iPad 6 running Cubasis but thought why not just use MIDI to record/edit/fix/playback the drum tracks. The Steinberg while great for audio (and MIDI) is kind of big in comparison and a cabling hassle with the additional Lightning camera interface and two wall warts. This IK is awesome. Just the Lightning cable between it and the iPad, and one MIDI cable to either the home (recording) or church (playback) Roland. That's it. Sure it takes battery from the iPad but that's no problem. For me it's a feature to not need a wall wart. I am always recharging multiple devices near-daily anyway.

[1] Has everything you need for a 2 input audio interface (2x mono or 1x stereo). Comes with added bonus of usb at the back to power my midi controller. Separate monitor and headphone volume and drives my hd6xx just fine. Instantly recognized by DAWs on both my mac and pc, no problems with aggregate devices with mac audio or asio4all. Feels solid and looks great. Minor issues are that the bundled cable is quite short. Recommend as a budget / starter interface as long as you are ok with 1x stereo or 2x mono input. I have a larger interface but it's not portable so I bring this along with my midi controller and macbook in my backpack when I need to move around, very convenient.

[0.75 lb] Needed a hub for my many Synthesizers/MIDI Interface to Computer for my Home Studio. This did the trick. In fact, I'm purchasing a second one to complete the job.

[1x RJ45] I already have the Satechi hub, but I needed a few extra USB-A inputs. So I got this...I use it to connect my MIDI keyboard and drumpad, as well as my iLok and external harddrive with all my sound libraries to my Mac....So basically it only gets used during music-production related tasks...just one plug and everything is connected... It just works.
