Incredible Instruments 16x16 midi matrix router

The Mid matrix router is a midi controlled Midi router with 16 inputs and 16 outputs. Each input is routable to any or all of the 16 outputs. Up to 256 memory locations Each snapshot of the routing can be modified on the fly from the front panel or via midi Easily readable front display

There is a shortage of midi interfaces on the market and those that exist are limited in the range of equipment they can communicate with. The midi matrix addresses this problem and will enable the modern studio or live arena to access multiple input streams and route them to a variety of output destinations with full control of routing via midi or manually from a simple front panel control. The unit utilises high speed opto-isolators which can easily handle the data stream speeds of Midi 2.0 The internal design allows for expansion of the amount of channels it can route the 16 inputs to, up to a maximum of 256 outputs. The router utilises a powerful ARM processor and can easily handle midi modification of the incoming data on the fly (such as merge or message filtering or sync) All memory slots are battery backed up in case of power failure. The unit is available in a 3U high rack mountable unit.

The live arena and the recording studio are the main environments envisaged for use and both have similar requirements. With the advent of Midi 2.0 and the ability to control to an incredible resolution and to incorporate audio into the same data stream the industry is now looking forward to a scenario that Midi 1.0 offered but could not technologically achieve.

Just as the modern studio aspires to have a flat frequency response on its audio monitoring systems the studios will now be able to offer a flat industry standard control and audio system. Keyboard, drum machines, synthesisers, samplers, lighting rigs, mixers, lighting and pyro FX can be easily setup and transported from studio to studio or arena to arena, and each scenario saved to a cloud store minimising set up times and facilitating integration and synchronisation that has never been available before, The midi Matrix will be at the core of all of these products as the conductor and director.
