  1. I found 2 interesting links: - https://www.strymon.net/faq/how-do-strymon-pedals-receive-midi-messages-sent-via-14-trs-midi-cable/ where Strymon describe just what you said. Which means Strymon pedals are bi-directionnal with midi jack. However in the Riverside and Iridium manual, I see that midi out is configurable: ON (pedal can send internal datas) / THROUGH / OFF (which is the default). - https://www.strymon.net/midi-control-sunset-riverside/ , Hugo (Strymon’s customer support manager) wrote in the comments " As for MIDI IN and OUT, this is done via the EXP jack with the pedal receiving (MIDI IN) MIDI messages at the TIP and sending MIDI back out (MIDI OUT) at the RING of the TRS connection. As the Strymon MIDI EXP cable does NOT support bi-directional communication, you would need to get a device that accommodates for MIDI IN and OUT using a single TRS cable such as the Empress Effects Midibox2. " -> Strymon MIDI EXP cable does NOT support bi-directional communication My conlusion is that if The Strymon pedal is set for midi out configured as ON or TROUGH it is just like you said (TRS ring is the TX). If it is configured as OFF it is just like I said (TRS ring is the 5V power supply).
  2. The diagram was shared from Strymon support engineer. I understood it should match their own cable: https://store.strymon.net/midi-exp-cable/ . If you are right and and the ring from Strymon jack midi port is not a 5v power supply, it means that power should come from din phantom power from the midi controler or another pedal. I understand it means midi din port with 7 pins. However Strymon pedals with midi din port are 5 pins only. I can no believe that their own cable would not work between their own pedals. That's why I don't think that you are true and I think that Strymon use a non standard midi over jack pin out with 5v power coming from the slave pedal on the TRS ring and no TX capability. I hope it makes sens!
  3. This post is just a feedback because I couldn't find anyone that actually built it.I just built the midi din to TRS jack from this schematic: https://imgur.com/gallery/Md24LCE?s=sms .The only information missing was that the 5V on the diagram must be connected to the ring of the TRS jack. 5v comes from the pedal receiving midi datas.And yes, it works perfect with my Strymon Iridium.
