KLOTZ MID-030

Klotz MID-030 is a 3-metre lightweight MIDI cable terminated with two DIN 5-pin 180-degree connectors in moulded plastic housings with gold-plated contacts. The 4-core shielded cable construction carries all 5 pins fully wired — pins 1 and 3 are connected, enabling DC power supply to devices that draw current through the MIDI connector, removing the need for a separate power cable in compatible hardware configurations.

All 5 pins wired — full protocol compatibility across hardware

MIDI cables with incomplete pin wiring are a consistent source of compatibility failures with devices that use pins 1 and 3 for power or extended protocol functions. The MID-030 wires all five pins to specification, covering the full range of MIDI-equipped hardware: synthesizers, sound modules, controllers, effect processors, MIDI interfaces, and DAW control surfaces regardless of manufacturer. Gold-plated contacts on both connectors keep contact resistance low and resist oxidation through repeated daily connections on stage rigs and in the studio — a relevant consideration for any cable that gets plugged in and pulled out as part of a regular setup routine.

Flexible PVC jacket and lightweight build — designed for mobility

The MID series prioritises handling characteristics alongside electrical spec. The cable stays pliable after repeated coiling and uncoiling, holds its shape without permanent kinking, and does not stiffen at low temperatures during outdoor or cold-environment use. The moulded plastic DIN housings provide a positive grip for connection and disconnection without requiring excessive force, protecting the connector body from cracking under regular mechanical stress. Three metres covers the standard distances between rack-mounted hardware, desktop production setups, or keyboard-to-expander connections without excess cable to manage.
