No frills, just two solid and predictable midi I/O's. Works reliably.

If you just need more midi I/O's and don't want anything else, this is your device.

Made of very durable metal container and is compact. What I've come to expect from Midiman/MAudio.

The price is nice and you get quality.

Just downloaded the most recent drivers from the website.. no problems there.

Not a very sexy device (who cares); just a durable workhorse and that's what I needed.

Experienced ~1/4 second delay from MIDI input to response... Completely unacceptable for any serious recording if you plan on mapping it through to something you're listening live to.

Simple product, not really lacking anything for what it is and tries to be.

Vista drivers were impossible to find, but XP drivers worked fine for me... Not sure why everyone else was having such a hard time with it.

For the price and what it tries to be, it's not a horrible deal. For the serious musician, go another way.

Again, for what it is and tries to be, it does all right. Don't rely on it to make you rich and famous (although, given today's popular music...)

Web site seems fairly out of date. Didn't deal with customer support.

Nice and compact, leaves a lot to be desired for the serious musician, but it'll work in a pinch and doesn't take up my whole desk.

Performance is generally good, I've not experienced any latency problems or anything, the midi notes are always 'heard' and broadcast well.

Nothing too special here, it can be configured like similar gear to act as 'thru' and such. The color scheme featured is very cool on the newer, (grey/green/black) ones.

The unit is rock solid, a nice touch above other plastic units. The LEDs stick out from the casing but really it seems too solid to ever break.

I continually encountered glitches and odd periods during which the unit didn't read the inputs or didn't correctly rout them within the software, especially if switching USB ports. I've never had this problem before with Novation, Edirol, or Protools gear, so it seems to be an issue with the Midisport alone. For this reason I didnt find it particularly valuable as a piece of gear, but more a pain in the neck.

Can't comment, included documentation is fine, website not as fantastic as Roland-Edirol's (one click driver-downloads!!!) but certainly fine.

I got the Midisport to compliment my Edirol UM2C, kept the UM2C, returned the Midisport as it was a pain.

Sound is not the issue. When it works it transfers sound well.

Good enough for my home software recording projects as I'm only using two midi keyboards.

Generally good except that it makes no sense to have the In-A port located in the front of the unit.

Considering all the problems I've had with it I would conclude that it has little to no value. However, when it decides to work properly it does a great job. The problem is it doesn't work very often.

Fairly quick responses but problems were not resolved.

As stated before, all the ports need to be at the back of the unit. Other than that it's just fine.

Don't know, the driver software won't install.

The most important feature is to get it working...but it won't because the driver software is terrible!

I consider myself to be pretty proficient with computers since that is my profession. I could not get the driver software to work on either computer that I tried it on.

Nice metal box, but it is just sitting there doing nothing because the unit won't talk to my computer.

For $69.00, it's a shiny dead box!

No phone number to call for tech support. Just email.

No, I don't want it at all. I am taking it back at my earliest chance.
