M-AUDIO CONNECTS MUSICIANS WITH THEIR INNER MIDI INTERFACE AT WINTER NAMM

New MIDISport Hub 2×2 and 4×4 offer professional-quality MIDI computer interface with added versatility and convenience of a 3-port USB 3.0 powered hub

Cumberland RI, USA (January 21, 2016)— M-Audio (m-audio.com), synonymous with innovative music production technology, today announced the introduction of the MIDISport Hub 2×2 and 4×4 MIDI interfaces with 3-port USB 3.0 powered hub. These devices offer musician and composers an easy 2×2 or 4×4 MIDI I/O, with the added versatility and convenience of their class-exclusive USB hub, which greatly expands the user’s connectivity options.

Designed for ease of use, their bright LEDs (five in the 2×2 and nine in the 4×4) clearly show the status of MIDI information being sent and received. Both units are bus-powered when not using the hub and the 2×2 features merge and standalone operation.

“Musicians who have MIDI gear also need a USB hub for the complete range of hook-up options. That’s pretty much true for the entire universe of computer-connected artists and composers,” said J.C. Sutherland, M-Audio Product Manager. “A quality MIDI interface is a standard tool for musicians, like a screwdriver—you need one to get the basics done. But MIDISport 2×2 and 4×4 also have a 3-port powered USB hub conveniently built in, so these are like really cool Swiss Army screwdrivers. People will love these.”
