Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work with an iPhone or iPad?

Yes. FORE lists iOS and Android alongside Windows and macOS, and it supports CoreMIDI for apps like GarageBand. Note the USB A-to-C adapter is not included, so check which port your device has before ordering.

Do I need to install a driver?

No. The interface has a built-in driver and is plug and play. Connect the USB end to your computer or device, the 5-pin DIN ends to your MIDI gear, and the blue LED confirms power.

Can it send MIDI back out to my synthesizer, or is it record-only?

It handles both. There is 1 MIDI in and 1 MIDI out with 16 input and output channels, so you can record a performance into your DAW and drive an external synth or drum module from the same cable.

Which DAWs does it support?

FORE lists GarageBand, FL Studio 12, FL Studio 20, Cubase, Sonar, DirectMusic, CoreMIDI, and MIDI Connections. Because it is class-compliant plug and play, other MIDI-capable software generally recognizes it as a standard MIDI device.

How long is the cable, and does it need external power?

The cable is 6.5 feet and is USB bus-powered, so no wall adapter is needed. FORE specs multi-layer shielding and electromagnetic interference resistance to keep transmission stable over that length.
