Does anyone know of a midi controller keyboard with a midi "thru" connection (in addition to the midi in and out) - other than the Korg 707? thanks.
Ciao,
Jerry

May I ask why you are looking for a keyboard controller with a midi thru?

My Novation MKII 61 SL has all three, and it's for sale as it is too complicated for me. I prefer my Axiom.

Torch, Currently running a left hand bass unit and a Yamaha KX through a midi merge box into a Midjay Plus ... was hoping to eliminate the merge box with a small, simple controller with a thru connection.

Bernie, Thanks, The Novation may be overkill for me. I was looking for a more basic controller ... ideally, a 37 note (49 may do) with the ability to select program changes from the board.

I don't quite understnd how a midi keyboard controller with a midi thru will acomplish the task that requires a midi merge box. Not that you have to explain,but I'm trying to understand as I also deal with various midi setups myself.

Check out Alesis VX49 with VIP. I have this and it's very powerful.
