========

A socket.io midi "server" and web interface for MIDI capable electric pianos, run on

a Raspberry Pi.

### WHY??

I hacked this together for some crazy reason over the course of a few days.

Doesn't require running on a PI, but does require running the server on a machine with

access to valid MIDI ports.

### HOW!?

I've installed a Raspberry Pi model B in my Yamaha Clavinova

(there's so much room under the hood!), stealing power from the old floppy drive power

cable, and running a USB midi adapter through a gap in the lid. Looks stock!

Communication is done via a WiFi dongle attached to the second USB port (and setting

this up is outside the scope of this project). Once you have connectivity, you can

install this script (use node > v10) and you should be up and running! I'll include

more instructions on how I got mine setup and all steps involved getting there when

I get a moment.
