For reference, the MIDI instrument used is a Simmons Titan-75 electronic drum kit, and I used Reaper with EZ Drummer on Windows 11 as well as Ardour with DrumGizmo on Ubuntu Studio (Linux). This device was detected as a directly plugged in MIDI device on both systems, which made it very "plug and play" as I didn't have to mess with drivers etc. I used wireless in-ear monitors to play drums that were recorded on one midi track while listening to something already recorded on another track. This is the sort of thing that is very sensitive to latency. I am happy to report that there was essentially no detectable latency, proper midi notes were transferred for value, duration and intensity. I only tested this on drums, and did not test it on (for example) a keyboard. But for what I used this for, it worked well. So I can report this device is compatible with Reaper, Ardour, Drum Gizmo, EZ Drummer, Windows and Linux. I can also report that it is properly sized to connect with even small devices (using a standard midi port), and that the rechargeable internal battery worked for at least two hours (the time I used it before recharging). This device offers good value for the money. Review: Excellent MIDI interface device to keyboards and drum modules with 5-pin DIN - This item works great and is less expensive than the Roland equivalent. I use it to transmit MIDI from a Windows PC to a drum module, and it performs flawlessly. I have purchased several items from Lekato and found them to be well-made, affordable and suitable for my needs as an electronic drummer. This includes the Lekato drum set (CPD-1000) and wireless microphone and other useful gadgets. ## Features - ✦High Quality MIDI Interface: 1 in + 1 out Indicators simplify troubleshooting incoming and outgoing MIDI data, supports up to 16 input & output channels, Good material made, provide true original audio transmit. - ✦Fast and Stable Transmission: Ultra low latency MIDI Input and Output.

One quick thing up front: I've seen conflicting info here about which MIDI plug (in/out) goes where. And yes, for dozens of years you'd plug a MIDI OUT cord into your MIDI IN socket on the instrument (and vice versa - that was the standard. Not sure if standards or changing or if this is just a single example, but their instructions are true to what worked for me: OUT goes into OUT sockets, IN to IN, not the old IN/OUT way I'm used to. For me it worked with the OUTS and INS being coupled respectively. First, I've used MIDI since the 90's and this wasn't particularly intuitive. The instructions are only a bit helpful (plus the printing is microscopic, not kidding, I had to use a magnifying glass to read them!). It took a few hours to get it going, mostly because only the sparest info is given. It was hard to tell if you needed the 2nd part (the dongle, not the tethered pair), didn't need it, or what. Eventually after seeing a good video that the company included in its order listing, I made progress. My overall goal is to use this so I can move my keyboard far from my audio interface box, yet still input into a DAW (I use the Apple two mostly), and then Airplay it across my house (or whatever space I'm at); the idea is not only to have MIDI control but actually use an onboard instrument in my DAW to sound back to my home pods - all without needing cables. Eventually I found that I do need the dongle plugged into my desktop Mac (I used a A-to-C USB adapter I had), and then plug in the two MIDI sockets to my keyboard, i.e. I needed all 3. 2) It took a little figuring out exactly how to GET Logic and Garageband to respond - and sound. Turns out yes it was simple, but too simple, and wasn't intuitive. First, I didn't need to do anything that the instructions said (i.e. go to Finder and Audio Setup blah blah, all that happened automatically, so that was a waste of time). Second, after perusing several internet explanations, I finally realized all I had to so was simply to make a new *software instrument* track (not MIDI instrument for my purposes), hit "R" or "I" in the DAW to hear real-time input, and it was automatically responding to the MIDI signal - but more importantly, playing the sound of the digital instrument I selected! All I had to do then is to go into the instrument library and select the one I wanted, and bingo, I was in business. So yeah, this little device works GREAT (very little latency when hearing your playback) and I'm happy with it. I just think it's simpler than the instructions made out. I think after a small learning curve, I'll find I use this thing a lot and with increased time and hassle saving. So far I'd recommend it... just know how your individual programs or hardware might need to be tweaked. ## Frequently Bought Together - LEKATO MIDI Cable, MIDI to USB C, Type-C MIDI Interface with Input & Output Connecting Keyboard/Synthesizer for Editing Recording Professional Cord Windows/Mac Studio -6.5Ft, Black - CableCreation USB B to USB C Printer Cable 6.6FT, Type B to Type C Printer Cord for MacBook Pro, Air, MIDI Cable for Yamaha Casio Digital Piano, MIDI Keyboard, DJ Controller, DAC to iPad - 2M, Black --- ## 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/383026192-lekato-midi-cable-midi-to-usb-c-type-c-midi](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/383026192-lekato-midi-cable-midi-to-usb-c-type-c-midi) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
