ESI MidiMate eX

worth it

saved me the trouble I had with low budget midi-usb cables, so far works well with relatively low latency

It just works.

Great for synths, tablets, etc. plug 'n' play.

Reliable

On my macOS, it just worked, no problems. The cable is high quality, too. The only negative feedback I have is that the two MIDI ports are labeled "1" and "2", but in a very tiny font that is hard to see. When you're using both ports on the computer, sometimes you have to select "1" or "2" in your software, and finding the tiny number physically on the cable is a little difficult. But this is just an aesthetic complaint. Operationally it works perfectly.

Best MIDI Cable Out There

I wanted to connect my microKorg Synth with my MacBook and needed a MIDI cable to play notes through my MIDI keyboard.

This cable did the job super well!

Easy and durable.

Great to have

Bought this a couple months ago and I wasn't disappointed. It works exactly how it should and the quality looks pretty good.

Works like a charm

Does exactly what it says, reliably without any config right out of the box

Flawless

Using it with Ubuntu Studio 22.04. Absolutely fabulous. Integrates with JACK and Ardour without a hitch. Connects keyboard and Godin seamlessly.

Funktioniert sehr gut!

Bis jetzt bin ich sehr zufrieden damit! Es tut, was es soll und es gab bisher keinerlei Probleme :)

Easy to use solution

Provides a stable midi connection, works out of the box with windows or mac. For some reason it shows up as two different devices, but it wasn't hard to figure out that one is for input, and the other is for out. Keep that in mind. Also, the two plugs are almost indentical, it's a bit hard to differentiate between the in and out, but you can mark it with something.

Simple MIDI solution

I have some old synths with retrofit midi in. This works great.
