It is outside the MIDI spec to run that distance from the keyboard to the organ, but having done this before, it works well. If you have trouble getting MIDI to the back, write me, as translating the current loop from RS485 and back, works well for runs up to a quarter mile over CAT5.
I am using this: www.eurekasound.com/mm-lr The Artsian MicroMidi system I use on my organs also has a twisted pair midi extender, but this is less expensive, has its own power supply, and is easier to connect with RJ45. Since the organ is portable, that is the best solution.
@@Art_Thompson Excellent. That is a commercially packaged unit of what I described. The network cable is the twisted pair and the two boxes contain the transitions to and from current loop MIDI to transmission line terminated at both ends. The USB is just to power the devices. Glad to see the keyboard MIDI connected to the organ. Well done.
Such a dream of a cute little setup!
👍...how neat...and what a cozy little church....

I see keyboards but no pipes
Behind the accordion door at the right. I pan to an inside view at 1:00.
