Based in Tadworth, Surrey, Kenton is widely regarded as a specialist in the plumbing of electronic music rigs. Its product catalog centers on MIDI-to-CV converters (notably the long-running Pro Solo and Pro-2 lines), USB MIDI interfaces like the USB Solo, MIDI thru and merge boxes, and retrofit kits that add MIDI to vintage analog synthesizers that never shipped with it. The firm also makes socket upgrade kits and custom interface hardware.

Kenton's gear is used by keyboard players, studio engineers, broadcasters, and theatre productions where reliable MIDI routing is mission-critical, and the company has a reputation for keeping vintage synths playable alongside modern DAWs and controllers.

Kenton has 21 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Converters, MIDI Interfaces, and DAW Controllers. Their gear is featured by 31 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Pop. Notable users include Trent Reznor, Adrian Utley, and Kevin Parker.
