MIDI Thru - probonopd/MiniDexed GitHub Wiki

MIDI Thru functionality can be used to forward MIDI messages which MiniDexed is receiving, e.g., from a MIDI controller such as a keyboard, to another device attached to MiniDexed, such as a computer or tablet.

Option MIDIThru=from,to in minidexed.ini is used forward MIDI events from the device from to to.

from/to can be:

• umidiN (USB MIDI device, N = 1...4) (the MiniDexed device is acting as a USB host, not as a USB device)
• ttyS1 (serial interface) (note that one can attach an adapter that can act as a USB device which is attached to a tablet or compupter)
• ukbd1 (PC keyboard)

This can be used, e.g., to use piano learning applications and games like Synthesia on a tablet while using MiniDexed for MIDI input and sound output.
