Is there any 7 to 5 pin MIDI cable you can get for the Ground Control Pro that will allow you to connect the power adaptor to the cable?

I think the Rocktron 5-7 cable will work.

The GC Pro can accept phantom power on either pins 1&3 or 6&7

Since I no longer have a need for my CGX, I want to customize a 5 pin cable to provide power to my GCP. I'm planning to splice in a 9VAC power supply at the rack side of the cable. I just want to confirm the GCP accepts power on pins 1&3 as shown in this figure

Is that correct?

Thx

Jon

Pins 1 and 3 are correctly identified. Good luck!
