I tried serching 'serial' and 'midi', to find some resources...


We have at least one product to convert a serial port to a midi port and vice versa:

	http://www.midi-classics.com/p2615.htm

has one midi output and one input, although our driver is not capable to receive midi signal yet.

I see Midiman has some cool interfaces. Have a look at:

	http://www.midiman.net/

for the list of the products. They even have one for USB!(anyone wanna try? ;-)
