MIDI Cables


MIDI cables link your MIDI Controller to your MIDI Interface via a 5 pin connector type. Unlike the XLR connector type, you'll notice that both ends of the these cables are male.

These cables are a one way digital data street. In other words, you will need 2 of these per MIDI controller you want to hook up -

One to transmit and one to receive the digital data between the MIDI controller and the MIDI interface.


Since the data is digital, you don't have to worry about signal loss unless the lines start to get extremely long.

As usual, unless you enjoy untangling cord-knots I would recommend keeping the length as short as possible.

This is a great place to save some moolah without compromising the quality of your sound. Pick some up and bring the joys of MIDI into your studio life.

Use them to connect your drum machine, electronic drum kit, synthesizer or other keyboard controller to your MIDI interface.
