Digital Music Corp MX-8 MIDI
Patchbay/Processor
I am the originally owner of this Digital Music Corp. MX-8
MIDI Patchbay/Processor.
I bought it to help me develop some MIDI software that
needed merged MIDI signals.
It was used only at home for a very short time to combine
data from a PC, drum machine, and external MIDI
keyboard.
I have the original Owner’s Manual.
I tested this item recently and it is working great.
Here are some of the main features as described in the
Owners Manual:
6 MIDI inputs
8 MIDI outputs
