RJM Multibox MIDI interface, MIDI Thru Box, TRS MIDI Converter, Phantom Power Adapter, and Bidirectional MIDI Converter

The MultiBox is designed to be a multi-purpose problem solver in MIDI systems. It can be used for any of these purposes, most of them at the same time:

• MIDI Thru Box – splits one incoming MIDI signal to multiple outputs (up to three standard 5-pin MIDI outputs)
• TRS MIDI Converter – converts standard 5-pin MIDI to TRS MIDI for use with devices that require it
• Phantom Power Adapter – combines a 5-pin MIDI connection with AC or DC power and routes them to a 7-pin MIDI connection. This can be used to phantom power a compatible MIDI controller
• Bidirectional MIDI Converter – splits a bidirectional MIDI connection into separate MIDI input and output jacks, or combines a MIDI input and output connection into a bidirectional MIDI connection
• 9V

Typical Uses

• Use as a MIDI splitter to split the output of a MIDI controller to multiple devices, both standard 5-pin MIDI and TRS MIDI.
• Put in a rack with an Axe-Fx or Kemper Profiler, and it will combine MIDI In, MIDI Out and power connections into a single 7-pin MIDI cable to go to the MIDI controller.
• If your MIDI controller has a USB device port, you can connect/edit the Stryfecta (Strymon Timeline/Mobius/BigSky) on your laptop using without having to move MIDI cables and run the in their own loop - the Stryfecta can be fickle when trying to use the editor when they are part of a larger loop without the Multibox. The included video shows TheToneShepherd talking specifically about this (skip to 10:58 into the video to see the part about the RJM Multibox).

Features

• 1 – 7-pin MIDI input (compatible with 5 or 7 pin MIDI connections)
• 1 – 5-pin MIDI output, with optional bidirectional MIDI connection to the MIDI input
• 1 – 5-pin MIDI thru
• 1 – 5-pin MIDI jack that can be configured as a MIDI thru or a MIDI input that  can be sent to the 7-pin MIDI input jack
• 4 – TRS MIDI jacks, individually configurable for Tip Active, Ring Active and Standard MIDI types
• Power Requirements: 9-12V, AC or DC (either polarity), 50mA minimum. More current will be required if phantom powering a device. AC adapter not included.
