The MLA-1 is specifically designed for sending
MIDI data over long distances with the capability to send information
in excess of 1000 feet. Ideal for touring systems or permanent
installations, MLA 's can be used in schools, recording and production
facilities, boardrooms, live performances, convention centers,
churches, theaters, stadiums, amusement parks and more.
When to Use a MIDI Line Amplifier:
MIDI is an increasingly important
consideration for school installations, recording facilitates,
stadiums, arenas, hotels, amusement parks, or other facilities where
MIDI messages are required to be sent a long distance, or to multiple
locations. However, the MIDI standard only permits a maximum cable run
of less than 50 feet. The MLA-10 MIDI Line Amplifiers overcome this
limitation by converting the MIDI signal into a balanced high-speed
digital protocol that can travel over common twisted pair wire. The
signal is converted back to MIDI through another MLA at the other end
of the cable run.
MLA's are ideal for permanent installations
or anywhere a longer MIDI cable run is required. In addition, the
amplifiers can be easily networked to multiple locations such as from
the master control room to a series of separate MIDI rooms in a
recording studio, broadcast facility or educational lab. This allows a
facility to de centralize the location of the MIDI devices in a MIDI
system.
MLA-1
The MLA-1 can be wall panel mounted or used
with a separate MIDI jack panel. This facilitates greater flexibility
for installations where MLA-1 units can be in every required room. The
MLA-1 can be powered by an MLA-10 or used alone with a separate power
supply. Its compact size allows it to be mounted on or inside a wall or
panel.
