Midi in not working

Had the pleasure to receive this nice module in the mail a few days ago.


My main use case for this module was going to be playing chords via MIDI using the vector sequencer. Unfortunately I am having trouble getting any notes to play through the midi in whatsoever.


I recorded myself showing the midi related issue here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V404gecE9nk


Hoping that I am just missing something, thanks.

FYI I found this after wondering why midi wasn't working, and learned there are type A and type B midi TRS (Hey, at least it ain't USB).


The blue midi din-5 to TRS cable works (my other two midi din-5 to TRS are apparently type B).


I soldered two 3.5mm male wires together and swapped the tip/ring, which also works.


But yes, definitely worth noting there are two types of DIN-5 -to-TRS.
