DigitalLife 1-In/1-Out 5 Pin DIN MIDI to USB-C Interface Cable with 3 LED Indicators, Plug & Play MIDI Adapter for Keyboard, Synthesizer, Piano, MacBook/PC/Tablet, 6.5ft

Very good and fully working product. Previously had a cheap one which had some annoying bugs and very happy to report all bugs are gone with this adapter. It also works with USB-C to USB-A adapter as my computer only has USB-A connectors this was important. LEDs are quite bright - I am not a big fan of very bright LEDs but managed to put the cable behind the desk so not bothered.BTW, the cable is correctly lebelled - don't get mislead by some reviews below. It's just how midi works - midi-out cable should be connected to midi-in connector on the keyboard / synth and vice versa.

Second item bought in an attempt to connect a Yamaha digital piano to Chromebook, so I can play Simply Piano with headphones on (and avoid annoying neighbours!).This works as hoped, though have to be careful of the order I connect things in - took a couple of attempts.Another pro - there's no unwanted feedback (the piano speaker playing an echo as the note went in and back out again) which i experienced with the first thing I bought.

Works well, loses a note now or then (very occasionally), but I don't know if that is the app receiving the data (Simply piano on my phone) or the cable. I was impatient and just connected it to the piano without reading in the docs that midi in of the cable should go to midi out of the piano (and the other way around), so at first it didn't work for me because of that (hopefully if you read this it won't happen to you). I use it only for simply piano, and for that at least is sufficient. Has a strong blue led light which in some setups could be undesirable I guess (like if you have the midi device in the room where you sleep).

This product works great, I am using it with a vintage Yamaha Electone EL90 organ and a Windows 10 tablet. You do not need to install any special drivers, windows recognises the device and installs the required driver so it's plug and play. The flashing LED lights are very useful as they indicate when MIDI data is being transferred in and out of the adapter, there appears to be very little latency and it works smoothly. I can recommend this product.

Bought to connect my Roland V drum brains midi outs to my mac. Worked to begin with, then just stopped working for no reason. Waste of money.

When I received this item I thought it was faulty and almost returned it. However it turned out the the MIDI input and output cables were incorrectly labelled. After I switched them they worked. The labelling on the cables is hard to read as well as inaccurate. Also the 3D Barcode to download the manual does not work, although honestly had the cables been correctly labelled, I wouldn't have needed to try the link.The cable now works as expected with SimplyPiano which automatically detected it. You can't charge the tablet / phone while this adapter is plugged in which is a shame, and there is a slight note recognition delay, so it is no faster than a Bluetooth adapter. However despite all this, it works well and with these notes in mind I would recommend the adapter.

Does exactly what it says on the box. Perfect plug & play. I use it on my Yamaha Disklavier to MacBook Pro 13 and it’s flawless.
