Guide
to MIDI Interfaces
«
back to Sonic Control
Here
is a simple comparison chart of all of the MIDI interfaces that
we currently have listed in our Guide to MIDI Interfaces. Please
note: Manufacturers frequently change the specifications of their
Interfaces (or even discontinue them altogether). We'll be keeping
the Guide up to date but there could still be some minor inconsistencies
from time to time.
