You had me at "Obsolete but neat". I've somewhat taken it upon myself to fix old PC/Macs, LED HDTVs, Gaming consoles, ect... My side hustle is audio recording, and my current main DAW computer is a 2013 21.5" iMac (i7-4770 Quad core CPU, 258gb PCI NVME SSD, 16gb ram, 1tb SSD, GTX 750M GPU) that I got "as is/parts only" for just $50! I've also just embarked on an acoustic to electric drum conversion using an old Roland TD-6V module, an early 90's era Mapex Mars series drum kit, Remo Silent Stroke mesh heads, Ddrum Redshot triggers, and Lemon cymbals! So far after some tweaking it's been going great! Although I am now pondering using a MIDI to USB adapter and/or dedicated MIDI payback device so I don't have to lug my Focusrite 18i8 around for gigs? I think this may just do the trick temporarily till I invest in something more substantial like one of iConnectivity's MIDI playback units. Thanks! Cheers!

Thanks I just ordered it. Scored a yamaha digital piano which had some of the case plastic melted for some reason. It plays perfectly but looks ghetto, Now I will use this chord and an ancient laptop I found in a dumpster dive with that very program to interface. I am also going to use a big screen tv which happens to have dropped a few pixels as a pdf monitor to read sheet music on. For some reason the free sheet music I find is of the photo paged variety and needs to be blown way up to read it easier and this used monitor will do the trick. Still looking for a cheap or free usb 10 key pad to cannibalize into a pedal page turner to flip the sheet music with.

Sorry if I missed you mentioning it already, but can this also be used as a simple MIDI cable (without using the USB)? I have 2 MIDI devices and need a new cable to connect to each other. I could just re-buy a simple MIDI cable, but saw this USB/MIDI cable. The USB/MIDI cable would allow me to attach to a computer when I want to and I wouldn't have to buy 2 cables (this one AND a MIDI cable).

Great video! I have bought a similar MIDI to usb cable for my YAMAHA PSR e303 synthesizer and a desktop running 32 bit Windows 7. The DAW installed is LMMS VERSION 1.2.2. My problem is that , when I press a key on the Syntheziser, I have to wait for 4 to 5 seconds before I could press another key ! I have to wait till sound of the first key dies down. It takes a long time for this to happen! Am I missing any settings in LMMS or windows 7 or anywhere else? Can any one suggest a solution ? Is this cable itself bad ?

@RobbieStrike Жыл бұрын

I would like to try it in Linux and see if it happens there! could be a windows driver problem

@gajarpungi Жыл бұрын

@@RobbieStrike Ok Sir! I tried to update driver for "USB composite device" , but windows declares that the driver is most up-to-date and is working properly. I tried to run LMMS in the same PC but on Windows XP on another Hard Disk .(The box of the cable says that it is suitable for XP ) . I am thinking of getting the cable exchanged from the shop keeper. On the interface in between the cable, there are three LEDs. One is POWER ON. It lights up immediately inserting USB end into the pc. The other in the middle is BLUE. It starts blinking immediately on inserting MIDI IN of the cable into MIDI OUT of the keyboard. Third led never becomes ON or never blinks. It is located near the USB side of the cable. But, on inserting the cable into PC, the DEVICE MANAGER OF CONTROL PANEL OF WINDOWS 7 shows additional line "USB COMPOSITE DEVICE". So, PC is detecting the cable. Any further suggestions?

@yashwantchiplonkar9040 Жыл бұрын

I am posting this reply to my own question because I have found out something which will benefit others. I came across a lot of youtube videos blaming this type of cheap cable. But I want to share a good news that this cable also works ! There is free program available on internet for monitoring the MIDI data going through this cable. It is called "midiview" . On running this program I found that there was no KEY OFF signal coming from keyboard to PC. Therefore, previous key either used to keep playing or did not allow next key to play. Suspecting the keyboard itself, I tried to go into set up of YAMAHA PSR E303. For some reasons, I could not enter set up menu to test MIDI port. But I noticed that selecting DUAL instrument in the keyboard solved all problems. ( I do not know why, may be it is a fault in my YAMAHA keybaord ). I do not have access to another YAMAHA keyboard to confirm this. I hope this post will help all those facing similar problem. I am happy with this cheap interface.

I'm still MIDI illiterate. Can anyone give me a straight answer on the MIDI connections, using the generic USB/MIDI adapter (simple cheap one as in this video). I want to know how I would connect it to my PC (to use the Mountain utilities editor for the Behringer FCB 1010 foot switch), plus the foot switch itself, and from the foot switch to my Korg Kronos. I want to just send commands to the Kronos, using the FBC 1010 switches, ultimately. I need to know the MIDI IN and OUT for the adapter and also the cables from the foot switch to the Kronos. I Know the adapter connects to the foot switch, but there is only the IN and OUT on the FBC 1010. The Kronos has both plus a "Through" port. So how would the routing go? I know it's probably simple for all of you, please help. 😁
