Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 4

From the first time I put my Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router onto protoboard, I thought it would be handy to have a PCB version. This post describes the design process to do just that. Update: Find the Build Guide here: Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router - Part 5 Tutorials used in this project: … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 4 →

Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Revisited

After publishing the details of my diy proto-board version of my Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router I got into a conversation with @VE7FIM on Twitter about MIDI boards for the Pico and they very kindly offered to design and build a dual MIDI interface board for me for my Pico. This was back in … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Revisited →

Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 3

The obviously missing part of my Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router is the use of USB MIDI. The Pico should support both USB host and device functionality, but I think you need to get into the C software development kit to do that properly, something I've not looked at yet. One of the easiest ways … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 3 →

Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 2

One thing I've wanted to do since building my Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router is build a board a bit like ones DeftAudio produces for the Teensy. This posts describes a DIY version of a 4+2 IN, 4+2 OUT MIDI board for the Raspberry Pi Pico. Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 2 →

Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router

In this project I've combined my Raspberry Pi Pico MIDI Channel Merger and my Raspberry Pi Pico MIDI Channel Router to create a more general 6-IN, 6-OUT MIDI routing device. This project uses the two hardware UARTs on a Raspberry Pi Pico along with four "PIO" UARTs to give the six MIDI IN and OUT ports. Part … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router →

Raspberry Pi Pico MIDI Channel Router

Ever since I got hold of a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller I wanted to try out the Programmable Input Output (PIO) peripherals. I've also been on the lookout for microcontrollers with more serial ports than the usual one or two. The best I've found so far are ATmega2560 boards with four and the Teensy range … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico MIDI Channel Router →
