This midi interface has been designed by Bojan Burkeljc as you can see on the
bottom of the page. In this first version of the MIDI channel without a midi
channel switch you have to set the midi channel via a sysex massage - described
on the webpage. This channel is stored in the microcontroller, so you don't have
to set the channel every time.
This midi interface only reacts to midi note on/off messages - no further
parameters are supported.
Check if your interface is correctly installed and wired! Otherwise it will not
work!
Info: There has also been a second version of this interface - I made the PCB
for it and Bojan made the necessary software changes for it. You can find
information on this second version of this interface here:

Ciao
