Hi,
I have three pieces of MIDI equipment I want to connect to my Audiofire 8, but none of them have a "through" socket.

I thought what I needed was a "thru box" so I can connect lots of things to one MIDI socket, but Turnkey and Maplin don't sell them. How have other people solved this problem?

Thanks very much,
Alex

google: midi thru box

I got one off the Kenton website

£50

Metal box, 5 outputs. Does its job well.

You'll notice that the Phil Rees ones have all been discontinued!!
I googled MIDI thru boxes and couldn't find much.

Why is it though? Everyone is using USB or something?

Thanks for the Kenton tip I'll have alook.

sorry, i didn´t know about phil reese.
but the ones from midi solutions are available.

Ironically, I was just considering selling mine last night, but decided against it. If I ever get a band together again, I know I'd be looking for another one.

These look good:
