THE SEAT OF POWER FOR YOUR USB MIDI CONTROLLER
Midithrone is an active converter which allows you to connect any MIDI USB Class Compliant device to any other MIDI device with a DIN (traditional) or ⅛” MIDI input. Anything from a 1982 Juno Synthesizer, to a 2023 Opsix, can now connect over MIDI to your USB MIDI controllers.
Midithrone has 2 MIDI outputs. The first is a traditional 5-pin DIN MIDI jack. Connect this jack to any MIDI device with a similar old-school DIN MIDI INPUT.
The second output is a new-school ⅛” MIDI jack, which can be set to comply with either TYPE-A or TYPE-B standard (secret switch inside).
All MIDI messages including note on/off, transport (clock, stop and start), program changes, sysex etc are transmitted without modification. Midithrone does no filtering or modifications to the messages what-so-ever, and simply passes on MIDI messages from the USB device out through the hardware MIDI ports.
To power Midithrone, use a USB-B cable to connect to any 5V USB power supply, such as a phone charger or other USB power source. A USB battery bank can also work well.
