Parts Questions

Hi,

Can i connect a MIDI keyboard and the MIDIbox Plus in line with each other, to connect to a pc to play in reason or cubase?

Would look like:

[PC]<---------[MidiBox]<---------[Midi keyboard]

Do i have to add anything to my midi box to do this?

Thanks

Mitch

Yep, you’ll need a midi-thru port on the midibox. This will send all data from the keyboard thru the output of the midibox as well as the events from the midibox itself.

There is an additional schematic on the midibox plus page (http://www.ucapps.de/midibox/midi_thru.gif).

cheers!

Hi,

the Thru Port is only required when you plan to connect the MIDI Out of your keyboard to serveral MIDI devices in parallel.

For this setup:

[PC]<---------[MidiBox]<---------[Midi keyboard]

no additional hardware is required - the internal MIDI merger of the MIDIbox will forward the events from MIDI-In to MIDI-out.

Best Regards, Thorsten.
