iConnectivity has announced the release of the mio2, mio4, and mio10, three models in a new line of ultra-versatile MIDI problem solvers offering support for 0 to 2 computers simultaneously, plus built-in MIDI merging, filtering, remapping and routing.
mio2™, mio4™, and mio10™ work stand-alone or with up to two computers, with technology incorporating not just 5-pin MIDI but also USB MIDI, Ethernet MIDI, and inter-computer MIDI. They accommodate every type of setup used in a modern music-making environment, and their advanced MIDI merging, filtering, remapping, and routing functions take the place of extra hardware units.
“Before iConnectivity came onto the scene and stirred up the MIDI world, interfaces hadn’t changed since the ’80s!” says Al Joelson, VP of Sales and Marketing. “We now have a comprehensive lineup that completely reimagines what a MIDI interface can do. Whether you’re designing a new setup or improving an existing one, we can offer a model that ties it all together.”
The mio™ line handles everything from essential up to extreme MIDI setups, in the studio and on stage. They’re all USB MIDI Class-Compliant, so they plug-‘n-play – no drivers become outdated, and other musicians only have to plug in to collaborate.
Famed musician/sound designer/MIDI wizard Richard Devine has been working with a preproduction unit: “iConnectivity’s new mio10 is the dream MIDI system I’ve been waiting for! Its routing system is very flexible, and it’s a breeze to use. Absolute class all the way. The Rolls Royce of MIDI interfaces!”
