Roll Over to Enlarge Main

Product Description

Provides 8 MIDI IN, 8 MIDI OUT, and 128 MIDI channels. Plug-and-play compatible with all Macintosh and Windows software. Sixteen convenient, 1-touch front-panel presets (8 factory and 8 user programmable). Software console for both Mac and Windows provides comprehensive routing, merging, and muting.

Converts and stripes SMPTE in all frame formats (24, 25, 29.97 drop and non-drop, and 30). SMPTE jam sync with adjustable freewheeling for drop-out free sync. Supports MIDI Machine Control. Serves as either an MMC master or slave; distributes MMC transport commands to all other MMC devices. Pedal input for momentary foot switch or audio click-to-MIDI conversion. Internal power supply (no wall-warts!).

The MIDI Express XT takes full advantage of USB, giving you increased MIDI throughput, better timing accuracy, support for "hot-swapping" and plug-and-play expansion. Need to connect another sound module or synth? No problem. Just add another MOTU USB MIDI interface via a standard USB hub.

No other MIDI interface offers this much value at such an affordable price.
