What is it?

A module for the RC2014 Z80 computer which adds MIDI capabilities. It comes with a code framework (Z80 assembly) and some built examples

It requires an RC2014 with the enhanced backplane, an SIO/2 serial module and CP/M (ROMWBW so far untested but if you run ROMWBW and would like to help, please get in touch.)

Why did you make it?

I made it because I enjoy programming the RC2014, enjoy making music and love MIDI. I use the AY and SID modules for RC2014 and thought it would be fun to control those using a MIDI controller such as a keyboard or sequencer. Or to write a sequencer with keyboard input. The possibilities are endless!

What makes it special?

It handles everything and gives you a very simple API (simple if you write z80 assembly) for receiving and sending MIDI. The framework uses interrupts and buffering to make sure that there are no missed bytes with the incoming MIDI.

There is a limited library of code and example programs but I am working on more and could add programs that others write and want to share.
