There are always ways but portability is important.

Yes, you could do it with a Teensy.
The only issue is that the ready made MIDI shiields won't fit on a Teensy,
since the Teensy is a different shape than Arduino. So you'd either need to
figure out the pin assignment or roll your own I/O board.

Thanks for all the info!
My PMA-5 does have the serial connector, but it's a mini-din and I have
no clue what its pinouts are.
But even though I'd like to use the M100 with the PMA-5 portably, I'd
still like to be able to talk to my MT-32 from the M100.
I have a couple of Max232 TTL/9 pin

I don't see that as an issue at all. It uses its own power supply, just
like the synthesizer will. You can power an Arduino from a 9v wall wart or
a USB power supply. If this needs to be portable, a USB

There shouldn't be any issues

I wonder if that discussion can still be found in the archive...

Yeah I was using the OUT keyword to do like you just said. That baud rate
wasn't close enough for my synthesizers to understand it.

If 30720 isn't close enough, you might be able to do it with dedicated code
in software (bitbang). But you'll need to use some other I/O pins and and a
level shifter. Steve was doing something like this with the cassette port.
A third way would be to find a UART that is capable of the baud 31250 a

What did you try? You need to set the baud rate divisor directly. You
cannot use the BASIC port OPEN string or TELCOM to set the s
I tried doing this with my T102 a few years back and couldn't get the baud

Serial to MIDI adapters are around - although you'd probably have better
luck finding a design and building one yourself than finding a pre-made
one. (The serial port being the wrong gender doesn't help things.)
The protocol itself is largely the same, but you need level conversion, and
the baud r
