I want to connect a Midi Solutions Relay to the MIDI out of my AX8.
Cliff or AdminM can you answer this for me? Is the AX8 MIDI power old vs new standard or rather +5 or +3.3v?
Here is the blurb from Midi Solutions FAQ.
MIDI Solutions products draw power from either a MIDI Out or MIDI Thru connected to their MIDI input. MIDI Solutions products were originally designed to be compatible with the 5V MIDI electrical specification, however the MIDI specification has recently been updated allowing a lower voltage of 3.3V, so devices that follow the new specification will not power the original MIDI Solutions products. We are currently working on MultiVoltage versions of the MIDI Solutions products that are compatible with both the original 5V and new 3.3V MIDI specifications. These MultiVoltage products resolve most compatibility issues, however we have received reports of a small number of products on the market that do not provide the ground connection to the center pin as indicated in the MIDI specification (this FAQ provides more details).
