miniAtmegatron / "MIDI hack" information
February 07, 2016, 06:51:53 PM
Hi all,
I'd like to use the miniAtmegatron with a "standard" 5-pin MIDI input, i.e. without an USB connection to a PC.

If I understood correctly, the miniAtmegatron supports MIDI input thru the "MIDI hack" for Arduino. But I haven't found further information about this hack on the web, so here are my questions:

  • does the miniAtmegatron accept a 31250bps input (as per MIDI standard) from the TX/RX pins of the Arduino?
  • Instead of doing the "midi hack", if I plug the shield to a custom Arduino board with MIDI input (and proper glue electronics, optocoupler etc), can I expect the miniAtmegatron to receive and play MIDI note on/off commands?

Thanks!
