Description: MIDI USB Host Interface for a USB keyboard and a legacy MIDI device with DIN connectors Many new MIDI keyboard controllers have no MIDI DIN connector. They only have a USB port. They do not control a legacy MIDI device (sound module). This interface solves the problem. * This interface works as a USB host. No PC required. (See the connection chart) * The interface supplies DC5V power to your USB keyboard. A resettable fuse limits the current up to 500mA to protect the USB keyboard. * It has 3 connectors and a power indicator - USB 2.0 Type A connector for a USB keyboard. - 5-pin MIDI DIN connector for a legacy MIDI device - Micro USB connector for DC5V power supply * It requires a smart phone AC adapter with USB micro connector (DC5V, >600mA). The max current should be 600mA or more. (A few dollars at eBay). * This interface handles the following MIDI messages (at least): [Channel Voice Messages] n=MIDI channel (0-15) 0x8n Note Off 0x9n Note On 0xCn Program Number (Timbre) 0xEn Pitch Wheel Change 0xBn Control Change (see below) [MIDI Control Change] 0x01 Modulation Wheel 0x02 Breath Controller 0x05 Portamento Time 0x07 Channel Volume 0x0A Pan 0x12 General Purpose Controller 3 0x13 General Purpose Controller 4 0x15 Undefined 0x16 Undefined 0x10 General Purpose Controller 1 0x1C Undefined 0x1D Undefined 0x40 Sustain Pedal 0x47 Timbre/Harmonic Intensity 0x4A Brightness 0x50 General Purpose Controller 5 0x51 General Purpose Controller 6 0x52 General Purpose Controller 7 0x53 General Purpose Controller 8 0x5B Effect1 Depth [MIDI System Realtime Messages] 0xF8 MIDI clock 0xFA Start 0xFB Continue 0xFC Stop (Tested with Pocket MIDI Ver.1.4.1 software. www.morson.jp/pocketmidi-webpage/) * Tested devices: (USB keyboard) Midiplus Origin 37, IK Multimedia iRig KEYS, Akai LPK25, Alesis Vortex Wireless 2 keytar (Wireless USB dongle), Korg Nanokontrol, CME Xkey (Polyphonic aftertouch), Arturia Keystep (MIDI controller) MIDI Fighter, Akai LPD8 (MIDI guitar controller) Fishman Tripleplay (USB electronic drum set) Pyle PTED01, Alesis Nitro Kit (MIDI DIN sound module) Roland VK-8M, E-mu Vintage Key Pro, Alesis NanoPiano, Behringer XR12, Elektron Octatrack * Your MIDI-USB device must be class compliant/plug-and-play.
