Hello, I'd like to use a serial MIDI interface (already working on my Raspberry) with Bela. Anybody experimented such a custom circuit? I of course do not want to penalize the extremely low latency of Bela with serial IN/OUT of MIDI notes.
Which serial pin Bela Should I use for that realization?
Thanks for any help, in the meantime I will set up the circuit.

if you use UART 4 then follow the instructions here https://learn.bela.io/using-bela/advanced-topics/bela-as-a-uart-adapter/

the audio will still run with the usual Bela latency, but the serial port will be read from a different thread, similarly to what happens with USB MIDI devices.
Thanks, I'll prepare my new MIDI serial interface for the Bela Board, too
