## Description

Zawdio introduces our MIDI TRS Type A cable. This is a non-standard pinout Midi to 3.5mm cable built to replace the missing MIDI dongle from the following manufactures. This pinout, commonly called the Type A cable, is is compatible with: 16N Faderbank Addac 221 & 222 Akai Force Akai MPC Studio & Studio Black Akai MPC Touch Akai MPX-8 ALM Busy Circuits PEXP-2 Expander Boss RC-10R Critter & Guitari Organelle M Gen 2 Dreadbox Lil’ Erebus Empress Zoia Intellijel Palette Jakplugg Threshold Korg Electribe Sampler & Electribe 2 Korg SQ-1 & SQ-64 Korg NTS-1 Line-6 Mobilizer Littlebits - MIDI Module LPZW.modules WK3, Schleuig, Tram8 M-Audio Air 192 14 Make Noise 0-Coast Michigan Synth Works mBrane Michigan Synth Works Threshold Mod Dwarf Monome Crow MXMXMX C2M Novation Launchkey Mini & Pro (MK3) Novation Launchpad Pro MK3 (NOT MK2 that is Type B Red cable) Retrokits Rk-006 & Rk-008 SDS Digital WiFiMIDI Squarp Rample Supercritical Synthesizers Demon Core Expander Teenage Engineering OP-Z Teenage Engineering Acid8 MKIII Twisted Electrons AY3 Twisted Electrons Crazy8 & Crazy8 Beats Twisted Electrons Hapines L Twisted Electrons TherapSid MKII Westlicht Per Former XOXO Modular MidiXO Zetaohm FLXS1 Please note this is NOT compatible with several models by other manufacturers.

Review: I correctly ordered the Blue cable after first making the mistake of ordering the red cable not realizing there is a major difference, and it’s not just for looks! I needed this to connect my Korg NTS-1 to a midi controller, but first ordered the red one thinking that the color red would match the color of the rest of my equipment. Boy was I wrong! Got everything connected and nothing seemed to work. After then reading a number of other reviews I realized that the red cable has the opposite polarity and does not work with Korg products, the BLUE cable is the one which I should have ordered and is designed to work with Korg products. When the BLUE cable arrived, I plugged it in and everything instantly worked perfectly! Good product! Works the way it should! Pay attention to which color works with the product you plan to use it for!
Review: This Type A 3.5mm TRS male to 5-pin female adapter works to connect the Roland AIRA J-6 to other MIDI devices using a standard 5-pin male to 5-pin male cable. At the time I purchased this, the list of compatible devices didn't include the Roland AIRA compact series and info I found online about this was contradictory so I'm posting this in case it helps other buyers choose the right adapter.

If you're like me and trying to find a cheap way to control your MIDI enabled pedals that only have a TRS jack, this is the one you want. Works for Empress and Chase Bliss, make sure to do your research before ordering.
