Very cool – Franky wrote up a MIDI code library for use with Arduino. It handles the basic serial setup, interprets and filters incoming messages – also sets a pin to control the optocoupler chip (no worrying about incoming data messing with sketch uploads). Plus it handles MIDI out/thru transmissions as well – super helpful. – MIDI Library

Thanks for posting my library so fast, i’m impressed!
If anyone has some comments about the code, how to improve it, even some bugs to notify, just feedback…
I am taking it for a spin – haven’t run into any problems as of yet. Funny – I had just finished writing up a midi-input sketch when I discovered your library. oh well, the library is much tidier than my code. good stuff.
