3.5- Polyphonic Slave Serial Mode 4 - Midi Serial: In this mode the
SmartWAV2 can be controlled by standard musical instrument digital
interface(midi) commands, this mode offers 14-channel polyphonic
audio tracks that can be triggered by a midi host. Audio related
functions (Refer to document SmartWAV2-MIDI.pdf) are controlled by
receiving simple midi commands.
Midi channel selection is via the I0-I3 input pins, this allow a logical
binary selection of channel 0(0000b) to 15(1111b), however inside the
processor this is handled as channel: n+1, resulting in a 1 to 16 channel
selection. The STP pin acts as a midi omni-channel enable/disable pin,
when enabled it overrides the I0-I3 pins channel selection.
To receive midi commands the SmartWAV 2 uses it RX pin (midi in),
midi protocol works on a standard serial protocol (31250bps, 8bit,
1stop, no parity), however the hardware interface of a standard serial
TTL USART/UART device is different from the hardware interface of
midi(opto-isolated), in order to connect a midi out device to
SmartWAV 2 RX pin(midi in), a midi to serial TTL(0V-3.3V) converter is
required:
Midi to Serial TTL converter.
The midi(opto-isolated) to TTL(0V-3.3V) converter is a simple circuit just
to convert the electrical signals of the serial protocol.
