Are the old style 5-pin midi cables still used for anything, or is everything now through USB? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It might be old but it is an industry standard. For instance, I can control my programmable preamp and multi-effects unit in my guitar rig with a midi foot controller. All without a computer which is the whole point. Mobility. Flexibility. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

They can have some use some day, and they really don't take up much space (you can store them in a box or something in a garage etc..) You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
