SAMIDI5R - MIDI Right Angle 5 Pin Data Cable - 5 Feet (4 Pack)
The SAMIDI5R 4-pack delivers reliable MIDI connectivity for keyboardists, producers, and live performers who need multiple connections between synthesizers, drum machines, controllers, and DAW interfaces. These right-angle MIDI cables solve cable management challenges in tight spaces while ensuring clean data transmission.
Each 5-foot cable features discrete 5-pin wiring that maintains proper MIDI signal integrity between devices. The right-angle connectors reduce strain on equipment ports and keep cables tidy behind racks, keyboards, and desktop setups where straight connectors would stick out awkwardly.
Oxygen-free copper conductors and spiral shielding protect against electromagnetic interference that can cause timing issues, stuck notes, or data corruption in MIDI chains. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion and provide secure connections that won't loosen during transport or regular use.
Perfect for connecting multiple keyboards in a live rig, linking drum machines to sequencers in the studio, or routing controllers to sound modules in houses of worship. The 5-foot length works well for desktop studio setups, keyboard rigs, and rack-mounted gear without excess cable clutter.
Simply connect MIDI Out to MIDI In between compatible devices—no additional adapters needed. Each 4-pack includes four identical cables, making it easy to standardize your MIDI connections across an entire setup.
Seismic Audio backs every cable with a one-year warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee, plus fast shipping to get your MIDI system connected quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the advantage of right-angle MIDI connectors over straight ones?
Right-angle connectors keep cables close to equipment surfaces, reducing strain on ports and preventing cables from sticking out where they can be damaged or create clutter. This is especially valuable in tight studio spaces, keyboard rigs, or rack setups where straight connectors would interfere with other equipment or create cable management issues.
How many devices can I connect with this 4-pack of MIDI cables?
You can create a chain of up to 5 MIDI devices with these four cables—each cable connects one device's MIDI Out to the next device's MIDI In. For more complex routing or parallel connections, you'll need a MIDI thru box or interface with multiple MIDI ports.
Will these cables work with modern USB-equipped keyboards and controllers?
These are standard 5-pin DIN MIDI cables designed for traditional MIDI ports. If your keyboard or controller only has USB connectivity, you'll need a USB-to-MIDI interface or adapter to use these cables. Many professional keyboards and sound modules still include 5-pin MIDI ports alongside USB connections.
Do I need special cables for MIDI clock sync between drum machines and sequencers?
No, standard MIDI cables like these handle all MIDI data including clock sync, note data, and control changes. The key is proper device configuration—make sure your master clock device is set to send MIDI clock and your receiving devices are set to sync to external clock.
How does cable length affect MIDI signal quality?
MIDI is a digital signal that's quite robust over short distances. These 5-foot cables are well within MIDI specifications and won't cause timing or data issues. The oxygen-free copper conductors and shielding ensure reliable transmission even in electrically noisy environments with nearby power cables or wireless equipment.
