MIDI Implementation

Very much just a random assortment of thoughts and notes right not.

A combination of the UART approach (via SysEx or CC perhaps?) and normal MIDI

Food for thought of having at least two modes:

  1. Normal MIDI mode (single channel, polyphonic)
  2. Tracker style mode (1 MIDI channel = 1 synth voice)

Implementation Overview

  • Mod Wheel: Frame Position

Uploading Samples

On the WaveBoy, the SD card is used so uploads do not happen via, in that case, a CV input. Here SysEx could be used but it would require software support. Thus a MIDI version of TurboWave will likely need persistent storage.
