Portable MIDI Brain On Sale

CME has announced the start of production for the H12MIDI Pro, which they describe as a compact standalone MIDI hub designed to simplify complex hardware and hybrid MIDI setups. The device combines USB Host connectivity, TRS MIDI I/O, and advanced routing capabilities in a portable aluminum enclosure. Here's more details direct from the company...

The H12MIDI Pro features six USB-C Host ports supporting up to 16-in / 16-out virtual MIDI, allowing class-compliant USB MIDI devices such as keyboards, controllers, drum machines, and pedals to connect directly without a computer.

In addition, six TRS MIDI inputs and outputs (3.5 mm A/B) provide integration with a wide range of hardware synthesizers, modules, and MIDI equipment.

A dedicated USB-C Client port adds computer connectivity with 8-in / 8-out virtual MIDI, compatible with macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, Linux, and ChromeOS.

Advanced MIDI routing, filtering, mapping, and preset management are handled through CME's HxMIDI Tools software, allowing creators to configure MIDI thru, split, merge, and message processing. All configurations are stored internally for reliable standalone operation.

The H12MIDI Pro also offers dual power options via USB-C (5V) or 9V DC, making it suitable for both studio setups and pedalboard installations.

With its compact footprint and flexible connectivity, the H12MIDI Pro provides a centralized MIDI solution for musicians, producers, and live performers working with modern hardware and hybrid environments.
