Hi guys!

First post here. I'm looking to create a small-ish ambient rack including an ES9 audio interface and a Disting EX multipurpose module. Both are by Expert Sleepers and both have MIDI breakouts on their circuit boards.

Can I connect the breakouts directly and so avoid 2 sets of front panel connectors (4hp total) that I have no other use for as the ES9 has all the connectivity I need otherwise? Is the cable purchaseable or will I have to make it?

With love,

Ken


the mini midi breakout module (only 2hp) has multiple i/o (3 of each iirc) so can be used by both the es9 and the disting simulatneously, you just need the right ribbon cables and the right midi adapters

otherwise you could make custom cables to connect midi cables to idc conndectors... but the module solution above is probably a lot easier and cheaper!

Utility modules are the dull polish that makes the shiny modules actually shine!!!

sound sources < sound modifiers < modulation sources < utilities


Thanks JimHowell1970 ! That's perfect.
