It powers my wife's usb midi controller and an aux to aux cable puts the sound to our wireless speaker. Nothing special. But you plug it in and you're playing piano. I just wish it came with the aux to aux. Review: EXTREMELY poor quality sounds - I bought this "PianoBox " sound module specifically to play piano sounds with a midi keyboard. The provided "Grand Piano" sound is an awful low quality designed-sound conception that has little relationship to what a piano sounds like. I struggled for an hour to figure out how to change the edgy "electronic" sound to the "Grand Piano" sound before I finally realized that what I heard was the provided "Grand Piano" sound. The "grand piano" sound was is also very TWANGY with significant VIBRATO/TREMELO after the initial attack. If a chord is played, the notes combine to form a growling gritty undertone. Ugh! I have a free smart phone app (for ear training) that has a "Piano" sound that is far far superior to what this sound module generates. I bought this sound module to be able to practice piano exercises on my midi keyboard while traveling. It does generate some kind of tuned sound for the notes being played, so it met the minimal need. I would not trust any product from this company. ## Features - The PianoBox Mini is a great way to add sound to your controller keyboard or eliminate latency when working with your computer.

I am really thrilled with it. Instructions are minimal. It has two means of connection - a USB connector and a Midi Out connector. I discovered to get this to work with my m_audio keyboard and PC with Real Band or Band-in-a-Box, an additional module was needed. I got an MIO 1 in 1 out USB to Midi . I am not in business. I can record with zero latency. The unit sounds really good as a stand-a-lone sound module for the keyboard. It is straight forward and easy to use. ## Frequently Bought Together - PianoBox Mini General MIDI Sound Module - Mellbree MIDI Cable, 2-Pack 3-Feet Male to Male 5-Pin MIDI Cable Compatible with MIDI Keyboard, Keyboard Synth, Rack Synth, Sampler, External Sound Card, Sound Source and Other Music Gear - M-Audio SP-1 | Universal Sustain Pedal For MIDI Keyboards, Digital Pianos, Electric Pianos & More --- ## 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.co.uk/products/16278755-pianobox-mini-general-midi-sound-module](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/16278755-pianobox-mini-general-midi-sound-module) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
