Go implementation of a library to represent MIDI data.
This began as a passion project to learn and implement a workable amount of the MIDI 1.0 specification from scratch so I could have complete control over certain specific digital instruments and DAW controls.
I had been trying to solve a very specific problem I was having with a hardware MIDI controller and its percussion pads too. The library then began growing into a general representation of the specification(s) from there.

Once the MIDI 1.0 Roadmap is at least halfway done I will start planning out the roadmap for implementing the current MIDI 2.0 specification.
