MIDISPORT 8x8 USB MIDI INTERFACE / PATCHBAY

The flagship of Midiman's MIDISPORT line, the USB MIDISPORT 8x8/s is a powerhouse with features and bandwith to burn. In addition to being a gateway to the high speed and enormous channel capacity that USB offers, the MIDISPORT 8x8/s may also be connected to the "legacy" serial ports of older computers. Rock-solid drivers for both Apple computers and PC's, full SMPTE implementation, and the ability to run multiple units simultaneously are just a few of the phenomenal features of this interface. Add to that stand-alone MIDI patchbay operation, a MIDI cable tester, and an easy-to-read front panel design, and it's easy to see why the MIDISPORT 8x8/s is one of the most sought-after multi-port MIDI interfaces on the market today!

The entire MIDISPORT line from Midiman is designed to meet the varying needs of today's music makers. With some of the most dependable drivers on the market, Midiman brings more and more people every day to the power and convenience that USB (Universal Serial Bus) has to offer. Installation is a breeze, with no computer disassembly, no jumpers to set, no IRQs or DMA channels to configure.
