[sdiy] MIDI parser

[Jay Vaughan]

Complex State Machines are a *good* thing, if you're a software person ..
;) Paula is a hardware person .. don't pay any attention to her grumpy
software claims!

I'm yet to see anything that the very-well-written miby library can't
handle, parser-wise, and I've tested it on tons of gear.  Including most of
the synths in my studio that Paula had anything to do with, lol .. ;P.
(Vacoloco stuff, Monowave SYSEX dumps, etc.)

(PS - it would be pretty interesting to have a complete list of available
MIDI parsers from this group .. Neil J's might be my favourite, but I
wonder how else one might do it..)
