Updated and more powerful than ever, the MIDI Box 4.2 converts standard 5-pin (DIN) MIDI communications to a variety of 1/4″ formats. Four independent control ports interface to your devices, configurable on the fly without a computer or editor. Just flip the switches to the correct mode and play! Each control port may be set to one of several output modes, selectable using the DIP switches on the face of the MIDI Box 4.2 Bundle 1/4”-1/4” TRS cables or 1/4”-1/8” TRS cables to connect your gear! NOTE: This device does not perform channel switching or contact closure for non-MIDI devices. It cannot change channels on your amplifier with 1/4” switching jacks. Four independent control ports interface to your devices, and new user-accessible configuration switches make setup easier than ever. Each control port may be set to one of four output modes, selectable using the DIP switches on the face of the MIDI Box 4.2 Tip Active:.

Power: Requires 9-12v DC input, 50mA maximum. Status LED: Lights blue when powered, blinks red when MIDI data is received. Constant high-speed MIDI data such as MIDI Clock may cause the LED to remain violet. MIDI THRU: Dedicated hardware MIDI Thru, repeats any MIDI data received to send to your other MIDI devices. You can chain multiple MIDI Box 4 units by linking the MIDI THRU from the first box to the MIDI IN of the next and so on. Compatibility Please note that device support also requires a compatible MIDI controller. The MIDIBox is a data converter only, and won’t magically make your controller work with these devices.
