USB slave and DIN midi

[Keeze]

Hi,

I just breadboarded my Minidexed and love it! So now it is time to create a final product. I would like to have the posibility to be able to use both USB (client, to PC) midi in and good old fashioned DIN midi in.

Has someone implemented this? I am thinking to make use of a Pi Pico or Teensy LC and connect the DIN midi to one of these boards and let the Pico/LC handle the incoming mididata.

Note: I want to be able to choose between USB and DIN, not use them at the same time.

Cheers,
Kees

You can use either Serial MIDI or USB MIDI in by changing the configuration file. No need for a Pi Pico or Teensy LC unless I am overlooking some requirement of yours.

I want to be able to connect the Minidexed to my PC and to devices using DIN midi. So the USB must be client....

I see. Yes, then the way you suggest will work.

Have a look at https://github.com/rsta2/pico/tree/main/midi_adapter, it might serve your needs.

I think that i may have requested this before, but it would make a lot of sense if the midi configuration was an editable and savable "performance" feature. Minidexed is actually a pretty capable midi utility- can even be used as a stand-alone usb midi host... I could definitely see how a user (other than myself) would want to have the thru routing changeable for different performance settings.... without having to eject the card and edit minidexed.ini

I'm actually seconding this, it could be really useful, maybe you might want to open a separate thread with a feature request for better visibility.
