MIDI Implementation
Send MIDI information to NiftyCASE to control its outputs.
NiftyCASE will respond identically to MIDI received both at the “midi in” DIN5 jack and
via USB (from a computer/DAW).
The MIDI messages are handled differently depending on the MIDI channel:
MIDI Channel 1 - CV1/GATE1 monophonic
MIDI channel 1 will control cv1 and gate1.
MIDI Channel 2 - CV2/GATE2 monophonic
MIDI channel 2 will control cv2 and gate2.
MIDI Channel 3 - CV1/GATE1 + CV2/GATE2 duophonic
When sending MIDI over channel 3 the first note will output on CV1/GATE1 and the
second will output of CV2/GATE2 allowing you to control the pitch of 2 voltage
controlled oscillators at once!
In monophonic modes (CH1 or CH2) the respective Gates open (output 5V) when the
first Note on is received (aka when you press down the first key of your MIDI keyboard)
and close (output 0v) when the last key is released.
NiftyCASE also responds to pitch bend CC messages on all 3 channels. The range of
the pitch bend is +/- 1V (up or down by one octave)
