Start: 10:00

• Started a class for the midi controller to make commanding it easier.
• Trying to figure out how to time the start and stop of different notes running simultaneously
• Spent a long time looking at the documentation for the midi chip but it didn’t have midi commands in it.
• http://hummer.stanford.edu/museinfo/doc/formats/midi/ as lots of good info on midi
• It seems that the least significant four bytes of a command determine the channel
• Pitch bend might be useful for adding to the contact effects
• http://blog.tangrs.id.au/?p=551 is an example of playing an midi sequence on an arduino
