PRESS RELEASE

New MIDISport 8x8/s USB Interface from Midiman

Multiplatform USB MIDI Interface

July 24, 2000

The flagship of the MIDISPORT line, the USB MIDISPORT 8x8/s (msc: $499.95), is a powerhouse with features and band-width to burn. In addition to being a gateway to the high speed and enormous channel capacity that USB offers, the MIDISPORT 8x8/s may also be connected to the "legacy" serial ports of older computers. Rock-solid drivers on both Apple Computer and PC, full SMPTE implementation, and the ability to run multiple units simultaneously are just a few of the reasons this interface is the one to choose. Add to that stand-alone MIDI patchbay operation, a MIDI cable tester, and an easy-to-read front panel design, and it's easy to see why the MIDISPORT 8x8/s is the most sought after multi-port MIDI interface on the market today.
