I've had several problems with MIDI I/O devices in the past and this was a cheap and flawless device to fix those problems. With most other devices MIDI notes can stick and mess up everything.

I'm even running it along side two exterior sound cards that I am using as an audio aggregate device and they are all working together without a hiccup.October 19, 2011 Music Background: Student, Pro Musician, Home Recording Engineer I really needed this for live shows, so that I don't have to haul around expensive keyboards just to have a midi controller to hook up to my computer. Now I don't have to worry about breaking my good controllers because I can use any controller with a MIDI out port. Even better yet, it includes a half rack combination kit to combine with another half rack device. close [-] 5x5 motu

A competent, set-and-forget interface. Bus-powered, so there's no wall wart. Absolutely reliable performance on MacOSX, and a good value on a dollar per port basis.
