I'll stay tuned for any info you can provide.Currently, the Remote 7 acts like a MIDI Thru for the first 5 DIN outputs. So if you route something to Output 1, it also routes to Output 1 of the Remote 7. You can use both ports at once, just like if it were a MIDI thru, just put your synths on different channels. You can also use the 3.5MM jacks at the same time as Output 1 and 2 on the Remote 7.
Basically, i'm trying to hook up as many USB and DIN connected devices as I can.
One further question: I've ordered the ethernet extension box, which is described as providing a second set of DIN connectors which are hardwired to 5 of the DIN MIDI out sockets.
Does this mean that I might be able to connect two separate DIN synths to one single DIN output, one on the extension box and one on the front panel, but both reading the same MIDI data stream?
Or would this create problems of signal loading/impedance mis-matching/MIDI channel confusion?

In a firmware update, we plan to make the 5 ports on Remote 7 independently routable. So you get 5 additional ports.
By the way, Remote 7 isn't Ethernet, but it uses an Ethernet cable. Its actually 5 MIDI outputs wired to the RJ45 socket.
Thanks Darryl - that's good to know, and very welcome news.
