### clumsyMIDI
[<img width="180rem" align="right" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gmcn42/clumsyMIDI/main/pictures/IMGP8907-1.jpg">][clumsyMIDI]
[clumsyMIDI] is a free and open source PCB by @gmcn42 aimed at DIYers, which features an OLED display, MIDI input, MIDI output (or thru), and space for an inexpensive DAC module with stereo 3.5mm output. The board is designed to be easy to assemble, using only through-hole components so that even the "clumsiest" electronics enthusiasts can build their own interface for `mt32-pi`!

### PI-MIDI
[<img width="180rem" align="right" src="https://www.arananet.net/pedidos/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/3.jpg">][PI-MIDI]
The [PI-MIDI] by @arananet is a pre-assembled device which provides an OLED display, MIDI input, and a DAC with stereo RCA outputs for a complete plug 'n' play experience. The newest versions also feature a useful input jack with volume control for mixing-in stereo audio from a host computer.

## 💬 Custom System Exclusive messages
`mt32-pi` responds to MT-32 SysEx messages as you would expect, but it can also respond to its own commands. `mt32-pi` listens for manufacturer ID `0x7D`, or the "non-commercial/educational use" special ID. Therefore, a complete `mt32-pi` SysEx message looks like:
