To be able to access memory and program synths from a computer, it is nedded that the OUT from each synth gets connected too.


Thank God, cables come in a variety of lengths :)

I gave this careful consideration a while back. I believe that

regardless of the number of units you have, you just have to

count the number of midi IN jacks (ignoring OUT and THRU), and

you will never need more cables than that.


However, at least one cable will always be at least 3 inches too

short. Round up to 8 cm if you're in one of *those* parts of

the world.
