[sdiy] Midi octave shift

[Tom Wiltshire]

Hi Tim,

If you’re providing a MIDI input, then you’ve probably got a uP and adding a octave shift or arbitrary transposition is so simple that it’s almost silly not to.
At the same time, yes, pretty much every MIDI controller does this already and it is redundant in that sense. If you had a bunch of these modular MIDI-input oscillators, it might be handy to be able to set up chords or intervals easily, though,don’t you think? You couldn’t do that by transposing the controller output.

HTH,
Tom
