For players with only one MIDI pedal in their rig, the MIDI Box One is a handy way to convert a 5-pin MIDI input into a 1/4" output. The MIDI Box One features external dip switches to expand its compatibility to suit a range of MIDI-enabled pedals.

The MIDI Box One allows you to hook up a controller via a 5-pin connection and convert it to a 1/4" output for connecting to a MIDI-enabled pedal.

  • Tip Active: Suitable for Alexander Pedals, Meris, Empress Effects, and other devices using voltage mode on the jack tip.
  • Ring Active: Suitable for Chase Bliss Audio and other devices using voltage mode on the jack ring.
  • Tip and Ring Active: Separate outputs on the top and ring of the jack which allows for two MIDI outputs using a TRS insert cable.

More info about this Product

Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

MIDI

MIDI is a digital communication standard that allows electronic instruments, controllers, and audio equipment to send and receive performance data rather than audio signals. This data includes information such as note on and off messages, pitch, velocity, control changes, and timing, enabling different devices to work together in sync.

In music gear, MIDI is used to control synthesizers, drum machines, effects units, and software from keyboards, pedals, or computers. It allows complex setups to be automated and coordinated, making it essential for studio production, live performance, and modern electronic and hybrid music rigs.
