Review: Allows you to use a KMI MIDI controller with vintage synthesizers and samplers - I use this MIDI expander to connect my KMI 12-Step foot controller (also recommended!) to a Roland SP sampler pad, which has the old-fashioned multi-pin MIDI input. It works seamlessly with these two devices, which were probably manufactured at least 20 years apart. Be warned that it only works with KMI controllers (or so it says, I haven't tested it with any other brand MIDI controllers). It's lightweight but sturdy and worked flawlessly right out of the box. Review: Works great - It works great, but seemed over priced. ## Features - 5 pin MIDI In & Out enables communication with hardware devices - Powers your KMI controller and enables standalone use without a computer - Includes 2 meter A to B USB cable, power plug, and 5 meter A to B mini-USB cable - Compatible with SoftStep, 12 Step, QuNeo, QuNexus, and K-Mix. - The Keith McMillen Instruments MIDI Expander is a must have add-on that enables you to control your MIDI world. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004A908TU | | Audio Input | USB | | Best Sellers Rank | #86,323 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #65 in Computer Recording MIDI Interfaces | | Brand | Keith McMillen Instruments | | Brand Name | Keith McMillen Instruments | | Compatible Devices | SoftStep, 12 Step, QuNeo, QuNexus, K-Mix | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 3.5 out of 5 stars 67 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00793573869074 | | Item Type Name | Midi Controller | | Item Weight | 2.4 ounces | | Manufacturer | Keith McMillen Instruments | | Number of Channels | 16 | | Operating System | Windows | | Supported Software | SoftStep | | UPC | 793573869074 | | Warranty Description | One year parts and labor. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Keith McMillen Instruments - **Compatible Devices:** SoftStep, 12 Step, QuNeo, QuNexus, K-Mix - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Number of Channels:** 16 - **Supported Software:** SoftStep ## Images ![MIDI Expander for Keith McMillen Instruments - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PzN+RLJYL.jpg) ![MIDI Expander for Keith McMillen Instruments - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812+C9x6cOL.jpg) ![MIDI Expander for Keith McMillen Instruments - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91Ec-2DwcVL.jpg) ![MIDI Expander for Keith McMillen Instruments - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81maOSQnP8L.jpg) ![MIDI Expander for Keith McMillen Instruments - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31juLIA+J9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Allows you to use a KMI MIDI controller with vintage synthesizers and samplers *by I***Y on January 24, 2021* I use this MIDI expander to connect my KMI 12-Step foot controller (also recommended!) to a Roland SP sampler pad, which has the old-fashioned multi-pin MIDI input. It works seamlessly with these two devices, which were probably manufactured at least 20 years apart. Be warned that it only works with KMI controllers (or so it says, I haven't tested it with any other brand MIDI controllers). It's lightweight but sturdy and worked flawlessly right out of the box. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great *by M***L on November 29, 2024* It works great, but seemed over priced. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Necessary but dumb *by A***C on December 24, 2022* It works as described, but shame on KMI for making a propriety box to decode USB to MIDI. Nickel and dime mentality. The MIDI ports on my unit are not aligned with the metal cutout holes and some wider-sheathed cables are difficult to get in and out because they rub against the edge of the metal cutout. ## Frequently Bought Together - Keith McMillen - K-701 MIDI Expander Keyboard Production Station - M-Audio SP-2 - Universal Sustain Pedal with Piano Style Action, The Ideal Accessory for MIDI Keyboards, Digital Pianos, Electronic Keyboards & More - Cable Matters 2-Pack 5 Pin DIN MIDI Cable, 5 Pin MIDI Cable - 1.8m --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/2056822-midi-expander-for-keith-mcmillen-instruments](https://www.desertcart.in/products/2056822-midi-expander-for-keith-mcmillen-instruments) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
