      Hi all :) My first post after finally getting my A400 up and running. What a blast to use the Amiga interface again after over 20 years!

      My question, can I just plug a USB midi interface into Pi and say run a Mod Tracker (Audio software with midi i/o). Or does a driver for the midi device need to be installed?

      Cheers

        I don't think Amiberry has support for connecting the host MIDI device to the emulated system.

          @mitu thats sad, wish I knew how to code for it, as Elan Performer software takes midi-in. Great for triggering animations. Not to mention Octamed audio tracker for making music :(

          Any idea what would it take to do, is it scripting or C+ coding. etc?

          Some refs I have found:
          https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/wiki/Serial-Port-support
          and for a PC/Ami emulator:

          and this for Linux/Amiga:
