MIDI Out Me
This is a handy adapter that allows you to command and control MIDI devices via serial communication over a standard MIDI cable (5 pin DIN).
The MidiOut Me is a handy adapter that allows you, with a microcontroller (or other UART serial data source) transmitting at 31250 baud, to command and control MIDI devices over a standard MIDI (5 Pin DIN) cable.
Kit Parts:
- 1x Midi In Me board
- 1x 5 pin DIN connector
- 1x 220 ohm resistor
- 4x 1x2pin male headers for easy mounting on a breadboard
- 1x 1x3pin male header for GND, +5VDC, and data access
- 1x 5 pin DIN connector: The provided DIN connector is an SDS-50J. The datasheet for it is here: http://www.cui.com/product/resource/sds-xxj.pdf
- 1x 100 ohm resistor: Solder into the R1 location
- 4x 1x2pin male headers: These are optional but useful if you want to be able to plug it onto a breadboard.
- 1x 1x3pin male header: You can use either a male or female header.
- Just connect Pin + to +5v, Pin - to GND, and Pin M to your UART TX pin. Then head on over to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_MIDI_1.0_Protocol to find out what interesting things you can do with this powerful protocol!
