Time to relax with some MIDI floppies. I hope I remembered to rewind them

MIDI is the silent architect of our tracks: one status byte and up to two data bytes. The status byte defines channel and command; data bytes carry note pitch, velocity or CC values (0–127). Master this language to sculpt dynamics, motion and atmosphere. #MIDI #MusicProduction #SoundDesign #MusicTech

"A silly album made using midi"
As a choir #singer and member of a casual family combo, I regularly need to transcribe #music scores and generate #midi files. This weekend, I have been looking for #OpenSource tools for music engraving and found #LilyPond as well as #Frescobaldi (which provides a text editor with syntax highlighting and sheet music preview). It took me a while to learn the notation, but I was able to complete my first engraving of an alto part that I am practicing. I love the result! https://lilypond.org/
I'm late to the party, but I see Japan sold 3.5" floppy disks of MIDI music (SMF=Standard MIDI Files) from pop bands in the 90's. It also looks like they were sometimes sold in a CD jewel case but with a special insert to hold a floppy disk.
I couldn't find a 3D model for a floppy jewel case insert, so I remixed one. New model uploaded linked below.
Your band's next floppy release, maybe?

I would like to raise awareness regarding finding developers to help add VST3 support to LMMS. LMMS is the best foss midi-based DAW, but it's missing that one crucial feature to get to the next level of acceptance among users. They've been looking for more devs to add this feature for a while now. Anyone can help them? https://github.com/LMMS/lmms
I've found another SAM2695 based synth module...

Adding some simple MIDI control to the Arduino Nano AY-3-8910 setup.

En #WatZatSong, la gente busca músicas caconas hechas con algún teclado Casio #MIDI, o música insulsa, como si fuera de catálogo (a lo #DeWolfeMusic), o música incidental de películas, series o, incluso, publicidades, de las cuales no recibieron ningún crédito.
Qué risa va a ser ahora, cuando las empresas usen música generada por inteligencia artificial para cualquier tipo de contenido audiovisual, y la gente se desespere por conseguir tal o cual tema, ¡sin saber que no hubo composición humana!

Part 6 pairs the Synth module with a XIAO expander for some simple IO.
https://diyelectromusic.com/2025/06/29/xiao-esp32-c3-midi-synthesizer-part-6/
And whilst on the topic of SAM2695 devices, here is a short play with the M5 Stack MIDI Synth using essentially all the same principles of the set of other XIAO posts.

And this is the serial MIDI version of part 4, but this time I'm back with the original XIAO ESP32-C3.
https://diyelectromusic.com/2025/06/28/xiao-esp32-c3-midi-synthesizer-part-5/
And part 4 goes back to using the XIAO SAMD21 in the XIAO Synth to create a simple synth module with buttons for voice selection and volume control.
