microbrute to control Blofeld?
« on: May 18, 2015, 12:41:16 pm »
Hello

The Microbrute manual claims it's usb port "allows MIDI communication."
The Blofeld manual claims it's usb port is for "tansmitting and recieving MIDI data"

Has anyone tried using the MB as a keyboaard to control the Blofeld? Because one could conclude from the above that it should be possible...

Be cool if you could

No. That is, unless the Blofeld can act as a USB host and has built-in software to recognize the Microbrute as a MIDI device, which is very unlikely.

The USB interface on the Microbrute (and most likely the Blofeld) was made for communicating with a computer, not with other synths, unfortunately.

No, but seems a simple requirement. What's your set up, I mean usually connecting a USB implies that you have some kind of computer with a Midi/Audio interface, or were you expecting to connect both units together without the means of any peripheral equipment?
