Response MIDI Gateway

Overview

The Response MIDI Gateway supports sending and receiving MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface)
control signals. MIDI enables various types of equipment to communicate, control and synchronize with
each other through the transmission of digital data. For MIDI output the signal is generated by the
controlling device and transmitted to the MIDI Gateway over USB or an Ethernet network to be output
locally at the gateway. The gateway itself does not generate MIDI messages.
