The MLA-10 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.
