MIDI In from jack on Bela Mini?

anteater

Hello,

This is likely a somewhat silly question, but what is the recommended way of getting MIDI input from a keyboard or another MIDI controller into the Bela Mini, if it's possible to do so? What pins / connection should be made? Sorry if this is obvious or stated elsewhere.

Thank you!

You can use USB or UART, which one does your controller have? If UART and you want to receive data on Bela from the external controller, then you'll need an opto-isolator circuit, see https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/midi-tutorial/hardware--electronic-implementation .
