I understand the desire for a true case. This way just seemed more cost effective and compact. Plus I really like the way it looks! I will definitely keep this in mind for the future but it would likely be a long way off.

You can solder them to the same pin. Just watch your power LED to make sure you're not drawing too much power.

nope, bought my 2nd one less than a month ago.. so its not as simple as new sucks, old good... my hunch is that the ones you had werent made by HDE, just used the same enclosures

Ah okay. I will have to give HDE a try then. Thanks!

Right on. If they've updated the page I think it's safe to guess that it's the new version without the optoisolator/photocoupler.

I'll probably just buy the M-Audio unit AGAIN. I tore my last one up to make a USB Arduino Boy...

You're not using Teensies in those?

This was a couple years ago before I was making the Teensies.
Speaking of teensies the USB-Boy will be released VERY SOON.

Few years isn't too bad for the price I suppose. I'm guess they made their older ones correctly and then tried to cut costs.

Haha nice! Do you have a link for where you got that one? The PCB for mine was a different version. I followed all the correct MIDI schematics and the thing just still won't work.

Hm. Well I know a lot of them are missing the actual optoisolator. I bought 4 of them on eBay and they only did clock sync.
Maybe you got lucky and they finished assembling it!

You mean the circuit is printed there, but the hardware is simply missing? WTF!

Yep! Exactly! I googled "USB-MIDI adapter schematic" because I was just going to make my own but then I found this:

First hit which is hilarious.

I ordered the proper ICs but I just could not get mine to work properly.
