USBtribeMIDI interfaces for KORG Monotribe and Volca synths.


Note: Firmware updates MUST be performed using a machine running Windows. An Apple computer, running Windows under Bootcamp, or similar, will work just fine. Attempting firmware upload using OSX, however, will wipe the existing firmware without uploading the new one. If this does happen, don't panic! Just connect to a Windows machine and upload the latest firmware again.
