For sale is a vintage Kawai MAV-8 MIDI Patchbay in fully functional condition. This is a highly sought-after, zero-latency hardware router that allows you to instantly map your MIDI controllers, sequencers, and computers to all of your hardware synthesizers and drum machines.

Unlike modern software routers, the MAV-8 uses physical, tactile sliders on the front panel to change routing instantly without menu-diving.

Features & Routing Layout:Inputs: 4 total. Inputs A, B, and C are located on the rear panel. Input D is located on the front panel for quick, temporary patching of desktop gear or laptops.

Outputs: 8 total. Outputs 1 through 7 are on the rear panel. Output 8 is on the front panel.

Control: 8 independent sliders map any of the 4 inputs (A, B, C, D) or "Off" to any output.

Form Factor: 1U 19-inch rackmount (very shallow depth, space-saving design).

Condition:

Unit shows normal cosmetic wear from vintage studio use (minor scratches/rack rash). All sliders move smoothly and all ports function as they should.

Ships safely and securely packed.

PLEASE NOTE: 9V ~ 12V DC power supply not included (any "guitar pedal" adapter like the "Godlike" 9V DC power adapter will fit an work perfectly...)
