Hi
Has anybody found a decent Ethernet cable to use with their MFC-101 that wasn't made by Best-Tronics?
I don't have time to go into the details right now about why I'm ruling out BT in this question.
Another facet of this is that my Axe-FXII is a MKI and the female Ethernet jack on the MKIs is recessed approx 1mm in from the chassis.
Many current CAT5 and CAT6 cables have extra plastic built up around their male jacks that makes it so these jacks won't insert properly into the Axe-FXII MKI's because of the recessed female jack.
I've already tried a few cables that don't have this issue but although they boot the MFC they don't establish any midi communication at all.
I'm assuming this is because they don't have all 8 wires wired up.
So if anybody knows of an easy to find CAT5 or CAT6 cable that they know *from experience* works with an Axe-FXII MKI and an MFC (MKI II or III), that info would be really helpful to me right now.
There's a long story behind all of this but no time for that now.
Thanks
