...but I can't seem to find it.
Where is/are the mastermind (as well as the the other products) manufactured?

Like others I'm waiting on a mastermind to be in stock.
Is it being changed somehow or just a delay form the manufacturer?
I mean changed physically not firmware.

Last question, is the master mind compatible with the rocktron 5 to 7 pin midi/power cable.
I would think that it is since it's a standard midi phantom power kinda thing, but if I'm wrong I wouldn't want to fry a mastermind over it:)
Thanks in advance to anyone who has the answers.
 
Most of our products, including the Mastermind are made in the USA. Some manufacturing runs of some products were built either in part or entirely in Mexico, but everything is being transitioned to the USA (definitely going against the trend here!), with the transition complete in a month or so. The only things that are made in China are the molded cable assemblies: the 7 pin MIDI cable and the 4x 1/4" adapter cable. We'd have to triple the price of those cables to build them here. Most of our electronic components are manufactured overseas, but that's unavoidable these days.

The Mastermind production had some major delays, mostly due to our move to a new manufacturer plus some parts availability problems. We haven't changed the design of the Mastermind.The good news is that the first units of the new production shipped from our office yesterday, so all the back orders should be filled in a week or so. We test every unit that comes out of manufacturing and the quality of the work coming out of the new manufacturer is just fantastic - better than we've ever seen!

Yes, you can use the Rocktron 5-to-7 MIDI cable, no problem.
 
Thank you very much for the informative reply.
I'm on the "list" at sweetwater for a mastermind.
It will be another few months before I can get the RG16 to complete (yeah right) my setup.
I have to say, until I saw your switch and loop systems I avoided that type of stuff and just used a delay pedal with my amp chan. switch.
Thanks again for the info.
