Hi, "MIDI-Bash" is an open-source project i've been working on to make a MIDI controller (like Drum Pads or MIDI keyboard) with the absolute simplest of hardware and software.
You only need a PIC chip, 2 resistors and a DIN plug to make a MIDI controller.
I've just posted 2 lots of PIC 16F876 source code on my web page with some photos of the project etc. In keeping with the open-source and "minimalist" ideals the source code uses bitbanging for the 31250 baud MIDI serial output and no interrupts and only TMR0 used. This means it will run on any PIC, even a 4MHz PIC with internal osc. Source is in C (MikroC) with some assembler for the serial bitbanged code.
The MIDI-bash concept is here;
