Arduino MIDI Library

This library enables MIDI I/O communications on the Arduino serial ports.

Features

• Compatible with all Arduino boards (and clones with an AVR processor).
• Simple and fast way to send and receive every kind of MIDI message (including all System messages, SysEx, Clock, etc..).
• OMNI input reading (read all channels).
• Software Thru, with message filtering.
• Callbacks to handle input messages more easily.
• Last received message is saved until a new one arrives.
• Configurable: overridable template-based settings.
• Create more than one MIDI port for mergers/splitters applications.
• Use any serial port, hardware or software.

Getting Started

1. Use Arduino's Library Manager to install the library.

2. Start coding:

    #include <MIDI.h>
   
    // Created and binds the MIDI interface to the default hardware Serial port
    MIDI_CREATE_DEFAULT_INSTANCE();
   
    void setup()
    {
        MIDI.begin(MIDI_CHANNEL_OMNI);  // Listen to all incoming messages
    }
   
    void loop()
    {
        // Send note 42 with velocity 127 on channel 1
        MIDI.sendNoteOn(42, 127, 1);
   
        // Read incoming messages
        MIDI.read();
    }
   

3. Read the documentation or watch the awesome video tutorials from Notes & Volts.
