Simple MIDI Serial Monitor – Part 3

This is a follow-up to the following posts: Simple MIDI Serial Monitor - which shows how to use SoftwareSerial as a MIDI port to allow monitoring over the default serial port. Simple MIDI Serial Monitor – Part 2 - which shows how to use SoftwareSerial as the monitoring serial port instead. This post takes one of my … Continue reading Simple MIDI Serial Monitor – Part 3 →

Arduino Multi MIDI Merge – Part 2

I've built a number of MIDI merge projects so far (for Arduino and Pico), but they've always taken a relatively simple approach to the merge. They had all ensured that MIDI messages won't be corrupted as they are merged - i.e. only complete messages will be passed on - but they've done nothing to interpret the … Continue reading Arduino Multi MIDI Merge – Part 2 →

Arduino Serial MIDI Program and Control Messenger

I believe I have all the components of both sending and receiving MIDI Program and Control messages over the full range of serial interfaces from previous projects, but I'm not sure I've ever written it down in those terms. So this project aims to put that right! Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second … Continue reading Arduino Serial MIDI Program and Control Messenger →

Simple MIDI Serial Monitor – Part 2

In this second part of my Simple MIDI Serial Monitor I show how to use MIDI callbacks to handle the data and show how an independent serial interface could be used as the diagnostic port, thus allowing the hardware serial port to be used with MIDI. Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment … Continue reading Simple MIDI Serial Monitor – Part 2 →

Simple MIDI Serial Monitor

This blog is full of MIDI projects, but I've just realised that I've never really done a "MIDI Data Dumper" type project, so building on my Simple MIDI Monitor and using the many MIDI transport options from Arduino Multi MIDI Merge, here is a serial MIDI data dumper. In Part 2 I show how to do the … Continue reading Simple MIDI Serial Monitor →

Arduino Multi MIDI Merge

I've already had a basic MIDI merge project, combining USB MIDI and serial MIDI into a single serial MIDI out (see Arduino USB MIDI Merge). This project takes that forward to provide the options for a whole range of MIDI IN interfaces merging to a single MIDI OUT. In Part 2 I develop the code … Continue reading Arduino Multi MIDI Merge →
