[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Roland MPU-IPC MIDI Spec's

dsampson@x102a.harris-atd.com (sampson david 58163) (02/14/90)

I'm trying to locate a source that has a copy of the specifications
for Roland's MIDI card (either MPU-401 or MPU-IPC).  The type of thing
I'm looking for has information about Interrupts, port address, which
bits of what command has status information, etc.

Does anyone know if this kind of thing is posted on an FTP site somewhere?

Thanks,

I dont know if it is posted, but I have a copy of the MPU-401 technical
Refernce Manual, and was thinking of putting it online for my personal use.

If there is enough interest I will post it on the net (and or do it in the 
first place!)

Definately true. BTW you can buy a copy of the specs simply by purchasing
the programmers pack from Voyetra. It is a bit steep, but comes with some
handy programming information (if you are just starting to do midi pgming)
