8 Introduction
9 ------------
10
11 The Android MIDI API ([android.media.midi][1]) allows developers to connect a MIDI device to
12 an Android device and process MIDI messages coming from it.
13
14 This sample demonstrates some basic features of the MIDI API, such as:
15
16 - Enumeration of currently available devices (including name, vendor, capabilities, etc)
17 - Notification when MIDI devices are plugged in or unplugged
18 - Receiving and processing MIDI messages
19
20 This sample contains a simple implementation of an oscillator and note playback.
