darenager's video: Korg Monotribe plug and play Midi in and out interface

@Korg Monotribe plug and play Midi in and out interface
I made a midi interface for my Monotribe, please watch the video all the way through and read this text for all the information including how to buy and what type of things it can do. This is not intended to be a musical performance so might be a bit boring if you are not interested midi for your Monotribe. This is very simple to fit, just remove the rubber feet, remove the 4 screws holding the base on, plug the interface into the Monotribe pin header, put cable between case and base, put the monotribe back together, about 5 minutes work. I chose to keep the midi sequencing simple, but you are free to create more elaborate patterns when sequencing the Monotribe by Midi input. Midi output does have some limitations, the CC data sent from the Monotribe can be a bit laggy, and when you turn steps off on the synth part of the Monotribe they will still be sent as midi data. However running an external synth into the Monotribe audio input can expand the pallete of sounds considerably, and in this case the turned off steps will not sound as the VCA is shut off. I will point out that people into DIY can build one of these for themselves, all the information was kindly provided by nitro2k01 aka Gameboy Genius on his excellent blog at: blog.gg8.se/wordpress I have tested this with quite a bit of midi hardware including Moog LP, Machinedrum, Monomachine, Dark Energy, MV-8800, RS-7000, EMX, and others, I am aware that some USB midi interfaces may not work due to improper implementation of the Midi spec, so be aware of this. This modification is not endorsed by Korg, and opening your Monotribe will void the warranty, having said this when used in the manner described risk of damage to your Monotribe is extremely unlikely. Thanks for reading and watching, hope you found it useful and keep rocking those Machines ;)
