Re: Midi question
I think the input box (several MIDI inputs to one MIDI output) is a Merge
box. I think you're correct for the other side; one MIDI input to several
MIDI outputs is a Thru box.
You might look at a MIDI patchbay like the MOTU MIDI Express XT, MOTU micro
Express, MIDIMan Midisport, etc. They are considerably more powerful than
a
simple Merge/Thru operation. You can selectively route and filter, for
instance.
I use an old MOTU MIDI Express XT Serial/Parallel box and I really like it.
