I have 2 sets of equipment - one is portable for live performances - this is a drum machine that can act as a MIDI Clock source, and this is a looper, which in some cases is preferable to synchronize with, and this is a MIDI controller that can reprogram for the current task, and this is MIDI-controlled equipment - harmonizer, vocal processor, etc. Here MioXM is mounted on a pedalboard and switching to the desired configuration is done by pressing the corresponding button on it, quickly and conveniently.
It fits in the lower tier of the RockBoard pedalboard in place of the patchbay, but I had to widen the window a little :). And you need a good power supply - Cioks Crux for example.
The second set of equipment is a synthesizer rack, mixers and a DAW controller. All of them are also connected via a second MioXM. If I need to combine desktop and portable equipment, I simply connect both MioXMs with an Ethernet cable and select the desired configuration on them, in which all the necessary routes and filters are configured.
It is impossible to build such solutions on the known MIDI Merge and MIDI Thru equipment. For complex solutions for constructing MIDI networks, MioXM/MioXL is indispensable and absolutely recommended.
