Midi Chain

[Wesley Winford]

I have a strymon timeline, bigsky, m5, and looking to get a meris polymoon and possibly a chase bliss brothers. What order do I need to connect all of these in midi? Keep in mind that m5 doesn’t have midi thru, and if there is an update for the PBC to connect strymon pedals to your computer by just using a usb out of the PBC. Will also need a 1/4 inch to midi converter for the polymoon and brothers.

You'll need a custom midi > 1/4" TRS box to convert the midi signal to the 1/4" TRS format the CBA and Merit use. Question is, is the polarity the same on the CBA and Meris. If it is, you can use the CBA midi box to pass the signal to both. If it's not, you'll need to reverse the polarity on the one of the 1/4" TRS outputs on the midi box.

With that, the M5 has to be last. I would run the two Strymon's 1st and 2nd, then the midi box for the CBA and Meris, then to the M5.
