Description
MIDIMATE II is an adapter cable that connects the
USB port of your computer to any MIDI Input or MIDI
Output labelled connector on an external MIDI device.
Two MIDI connectors are provided by MIDIMATE II.
Installation
To install MIDIMATE II, you need to find the USB port
on your computer. Make sure your computer is
switched on and simply connect the cable to the USB
port. No driver installation is required.
Under Windows XP, you can check if MIDIMATE II has
been installed by going to Control Panel > Sounds &
Multimedia > Audio > MIDI Playback. You will see 2
new USB MIDI entries in the MIDI port selection. Note
that this dialog no longer exists under Windows Vista /

or notation software) to check the MIDI ports there.
Under Mac OS X, you can launch the Audio MIDI
Setup application. MIDIMATE II will be listed under
MIDI Devices with 2 I/O ports.

Using MIDIMATE II with your applications could not be
easier. If you connect the MIDI cable to a MIDI Output
of an external device, signals will appear via MIDI
input in your software. If you connect it to a MIDI Input,
you can send signals to the external device via the
MIDI playback function of your software.
