If you're handy with a soldering iron you can add an extra MIDI out on your midibox if you just really gotta have it.

Here's how!


Take a MIDI jack and trim the leads on the bottom so there are no thru-hole leads sticking out like I have started here:


midibox2

This is your new MIDI jack

T13 is the midi_out via

Vdd is the +5v via

Ground is connected to ground on the existing midi thru/out ground pin.


Here's what it will look like.  

(Sorry, I didn't have any 220 resistors handy so I had to use two and it's kind of ugly)

I recommend using wires on one end of the resistors to make it easier to get back into the enclosure.

Drill a hole in the enclosure, leaving enough room for the power jack and the 1/4" jack.

Epoxy the new MIDI jack to the enclosure

Make sure you properly insulate, screw the back plate on and you're done!
