Hi all.

I've picked up a second hand Emagic Unitor 8 MK II MIDI unit to chain to my current AMT 8, but I need to find the appropriate RS-422 serial cable to link them.

Does anyone have one of these lying around I can buy? Covered in dust, in a boxful of old Mac bits maybe?

They have small, 8-pin round ends, like this:

Cheers,

I might have one - will have a look.

Let me know if Andrew doesn't have one. I may have a couple hanging around.

Thanks Andrew and Ben. Appreciated.

I'm more than happy to pay whatever's reasonable for the cable, plus postage. I'll take more than one as well, for spares.

Cheers,

Perhaps also try the local reuse/tip shops? They always seem to have box's of old computer bits and pieces.

AJ, just curious what chaining them together does? I have two AMT8's but would you need one to be the Unitor 8 to provide the clock or?

mmm ... well I thought I had one but I might have chucked it in the last move. Strange though, I still have the old Mac and the Opcode Studio 5!

Opcode Vision software took years off my life that I will never get back.
Very frustrating times.

I'll tell you if I ever get them chained together

The manual says the two units will appear as a single 16 x 16 MIDI interface, and I assume there'll be some clock distribution magic.

No luck on a cable so far. Thanks all that looked. Might have to improve my soldering skills...

hey AJ

i have one of those here i believe
and I'm just around the corner (on phillip st)
if you are around over the weekend - just drop me a line gareth@gigpiglet.com.au and you can come done and check out the place and find a cable in the mac box of doom... no charge.

One on ebay now if anyone is on the look out

I probably have one or more. Let me know if you haven't acquired them yet.
