Like the DMX thread a short while ago..... There seems to be a big secret
     around message reception.  There's plenty of examples for MIDI transmit
     code on the net, but nothing on parsing MIDI commands and data from a
     'LIVE' stream.  If you read the MIDI 1 SPEC, the stream can become quite
     complicated.  I took a stab at it for a 16C63 MIDI light dimmer.

     It seems to work ok at home, but my Cakewalk file is pretty tame.
     Anyone have any examples of a MIDI message parser?

     --------------------------

     Is there any publically avalible code for implementing MIDI stuff with PIC
     processors?
     I'd like to build e.g. a MIDI to CV converter which translates MIDI to
     analog control voltages
     for old analog monster synths. Also a CV->MIDI converter is interesting.

     After a surf session I found some Theremin MIDI source code and also some
     simple
     MIDI IN and OUT code.

     With a PIC with integrated serial  ports a MIDI->CV could probably be
     implemented very
     compact and nice.
