Bit One MIDI Upgrade Kit

Addresses several of the Bit One keyboard's more irritating shortcomings - allows you to: use both the keyboard and external MIDI at the same time; set and remember the MIDI channel on the synth itself; receive MIDI pitch bend, mod wheel, and sustain pedal.

Also adds a vintage-inspired arpeggiator, with up, down, up + down and random modes. Requires an external MIDI clock source such as a drum machine.

As it also pre-filters MIDI data before it goes to the synth's own CPU, MIDI response is a lot more reliable - the stock synth is very prone to lock-ups and stuck notes when receiving a lot of MIDI data.

it includes pre-assembled MIDI board with ribbon cable, DIN socket, chip socket and mounting hardware.

Note that it isn't currently compatible with the new Tauntek replacement firmware for the Bit One, but this is something I plan on adding support for.
