[sdiy] Midi Retrofit

So I'm pondering adding midi to my Omni2 now that it works.  I mean, its
working so I should break it right?

Since its TOC based and I'd like to maintain that level of polophony even
though using it would completely nuke midi bandwidth, has anyone seen a
midi->trigger project with 49 outs?  The keyboard isnt matrixed at all and 
most of the brute-force midi mods seem to be based on the idea of a matrixed
keyboard, but I'm hoping...

Otherwise I'll code something up for a Scenix SX48 I guess.  Well, any of
the Scenix chips would do it, but the SX48 would allow me to only have to
latch up outputs twice because it has a bucket load of IO pins...

( yes, I know its Ubicom now, I just hate the name Ubicom )
