Intro
This page describes the MIDI-Channel-Mapper device, which can route input channels of a single hardware input to output channels of a single hardware output in any way you want. The device's user interface is designed to allow switching the routing of some channels while performing, leaving other routings untouched.
Features
- One MIDI hardware-input
- One MIDI hardware-output
- Four “screen” - buttons (preset / bus / input / output)
- 16 “value-buttons”
- ultra-flexible channel mapping (merging / splitting etc.)
- designed to manipulate routing while playing

See the MBHP documentation to learn how to exactly connect DIN/DOUT/Bankstick to the core module.
Enclosure / Case
The Case used is a standard case from a local case manufacturer (http://www.jaegerag.ch). The bottom plate is metal, the top metal plate is just a thin cover, which is layed over the plastic top.

Setting Up
PIC's must be setup with MIOS bootstrap Loader and MIOS before an application can be uploaded.
If you purchased you PIC from SmashTV or Mike's PCB Shop these will already installed.
