USB MIDI Interface Cable 16 Channels

This HANNORD cable converts a USB port into a MIDI input and output pair, letting you connect a keyboard, controller or sound module directly to a Windows or Mac computer. The two-metre cord carries sixteen channels in and sixteen channels out, and LED indicators show power, MIDI in and MIDI out activity. Driver installation is handled by the operating system, so most music software recognises the device as a standard USB audio device within minutes.

Home-studio musicians and mobile producers

The adapter suits anyone who wants a simple, bus-powered link between a MIDI-equipped instrument and a laptop or desktop running Windows XP through 10 or macOS. It is not intended for users who require more than sixteen MIDI channels, need a rugged multi-port interface for stage use, or rely on direct compatibility with Yamaha hardware, which the manufacturer notes is unsupported.

Sixteen-channel MIDI I/O over USB

The single specification that decides suitability is the sixteen-channel bidirectional capacity; if your workflow demands more simultaneous MIDI streams you will need a different interface, while sixteen channels or fewer will pass through this cable without limitation.

Questions about this item

What length cable do I need to reach my keyboard from the computer?

The cable is 2.0m long, giving you 2 metres between the USB port and the MIDI sockets.

Why must I plug the IN cable into the keyboard's OUT socket?

MIDI data flows out of the keyboard into the converter, so the converter's IN plug goes to the keyboard's OUT port.

Do the LED indicators eventually wear out or need replacement?

The power, in and out LEDs are built into the cable housing and are not user-replaceable.
