Hi!

I’d like to connect my Organelle M straight into my Macbook for some on the go doodling with Logic. Since they’re both host devices, I understand I need to connect it like this to send and receive MIDI data-

Organelle ▶ (2) TRS-MIDI Cables ▶ DIN to USB - C ▶ Macbook

Oh that’s slick! @okyeron I was looking at your site… would love to order a fully assembled unit if you’re still making them. My soldering days are a distant memory 🙂
