USB‑MIDI adapter cable Renkforce RF-6439636 — 2 m, 2× 5‑pin DIN male to USB‑C/USB‑A, black

Renkforce RF-6439636 is a 2 m USB‑MIDI adapter cable designed to connect MIDI instruments and controllers with two 5‑pin DIN MIDI sockets to computers or devices equipped with USB‑C or USB‑A ports. The cable provides a straightforward wired link for MIDI data transfer, enabling integration of keyboards, sound modules and other MIDI gear into DAW setups, hardware sequencers or mobile recording systems. The black jacket and integrated combined USB‑C/USB‑A host plug offer compatibility with a wide range of hosts without additional adapters.

Advantages

The cable supports standard MIDI IN and OUT connections via two 5‑pin DIN male plugs and offers a combined USB‑C/USB‑A connector for direct connection to modern laptops, tablets and desktop PCs. At 2 m length it balances reach and tidiness for studio and stage setups. The single-piece design removes the need for separate MIDI interfaces or power supplies, simplifying setup and reducing cable clutter while preserving MIDI timing and data integrity for common music production tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting MIDI keyboards, controllers and sound modules to a computer or USB‑C device
• Home and project studio music production and multitrack recording
• DAW integration, MIDI sequencing and virtual instrument control
• Live performance setups that require direct MIDI-to-USB connectivity
• Mobile recording and rehearsal when using tablets or laptops with USB‑C or USB‑A

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the 5‑pin DIN male plugs into the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT sockets of your instrument or controller, observing the device labelling. Plug the combined USB‑C/USB‑A host plug into the computer or mobile device; if the host port is USB‑C, use the USB‑C end, otherwise use the USB‑A end. Most modern operating systems will automatically recognise the adapter as a MIDI device; open your DAW or MIDI host application and select the corresponding MIDI input and output ports. No external power is required for standard MIDI operation.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use the cable in low-interference environments and avoid running it alongside mains power cables. When using mobile devices, ensure the chosen USB port supplies OTG/host functionality if required. If MIDI latency or routing issues occur, verify DAW MIDI settings and cable seating at both the instrument and host ends.
