I just want buttons that work, but if you want to consider software, take a look at OPCODE Studio 64X, Emagic AMT8 etc.
Kmx 8x8 midi patchbay driver#
Sounds great, but driver support is usually so vintage it becomes on-topic here ( 😜 ). Then there are also patchbays with little or no controls on the device itself, designed to be controlled by PC. Probably the cheapest option, but as it is so much more than just a patchbay, I'm a bit intimidated by its complexity. Akai ME80P, 6x8, see above, just more 80's HIFI vibe Looks really good (turn knobs 😀 ) but tends to be expensive & in Japan.
6x8, again the wrong way round for my purposes. If I could find one very cheap I might do it, but that's not likely. 4x8, which isn't many inputs for the size of the beast. Looks good, but menu-heavy configuration. Never seen one in wild but would like to. Unfortunately rare/expensive outside of Japan Now one of the inputs has died on me, and due to the odd design with one input on the front, that leaves me with just three inputs at the rear, which isn't enough. I got mine locally pretty cheap (EUR 50).
You wouldn't happen to know an good alternative to the 550? There's also a 880 for about 240USD here in Europe, but it feels way to big for my setup. There are some 550 up for sale from Japan, but one of them were a bit rusty in the sockets going for about 115USD and about 25USD shipping. Haven't had much luck finding a 550 here in Sweden for sale though, so the simpler choice would be the Kenton and the UM-one mk2 for now perhaps. I agree, it seems that the 550 would be the best choice. M-Audio has some 4x4 interfaces, as well.Thank you for your reply cyclone3d.

I purchased, then returned that unit last year as the clockworks software would not work with Mac OSX.
Kmx 8x8 midi patchbay drivers#
MOTU just came out with new drivers for the MIDI Express 128, so good luck. Read the manual, you can see how antiquated this thing is. As a matter of fact, I installed the driver from M-Audio and the Remote software did not even show on my computer. It lists drivers for OSX but this does not mean the patchbay configuration routing (Remote patching software) will work on modern OS's.

The patching software is useless on Mac OS X so it does me no good, either. I also own the MIDIman Midisport 8 x 8 which is now owned by M-Audio. I have two Patchbays, which I still need but get around by just routing from MIDI out to IN to THRU on all my hardware and using one keyboard controller to my sequencer. Too bad, the convenience of a patchbay cannot be understated in a studio that is running soley external sequencers, drum machines and synths and is not computer DAW based. Since music is so computer-centric it seems the manufacturers have pretty much sent rack MIDI patchbays out to pasture. Midisport 2x2 and 4x4 series are a good example. Midi interfaces are of course, still around. An interface usually allows MIDI In/OUT messages to route to and from a computer based DAW to your hardware outboard synths, etc.no patching usually We must differentiate between MIDI interfaces and MIDI Patchbays.Ī patchbay allows any MIDI in to route to any MIDI Out. MIDI patchbays are pretty much a thing of the past and I really wish the were not.įinding a good one, with great patching software that is useable on a modern operating system, is difficult.
