There is a stack called MIDIBuilder.rev that I downloaded from
somewhere. It creates MIDI files. I looked and there is some hex data
conversion stuff in it. Here is the web address:

Hi Mark,
I too am interested in MIDI, as I have an old Casio Midi keyboard that
I use occasionally. It would be really cool to see how MIDIs work and
write an editor. For the past couple of years I've been playing around
with the idea but never found the time.
In older versions of Rev, there used to be a sample MIDI program. I
think it lives at http://support.runrev.com/resources/unsupported.php
This might be the first step in looking at the hex behind midis.
Most good midi editors have a "score view." (Of course they also cost
$$$ and so I don't have them.) From playing the piano, I know how
musical notation works and with a little effort could put something
like that together (I.e. a program turning a list of notes into
musical notation).
Maybe you could use Rev's read from port commands to get data from the
MIDI port? These days, most MIDI devices use USB, and so I guess they
are out of reach at least for now. If you learn something cool, please
tell me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
