I thought once about a MIDI-Sync out for a sequencer, with a 4017 clocked by 
31.5K and some gates to provide start, data and stop bits, and of course a hold
state where it waits for the next step of the sequencer. 
For sending one (or two, three) command/s this is practical. 
For receiving use shift registers, and a discrete logic.
