Amiga MIDI Interface (IDC)
A feature fawned over by every Atari ST owner, mainly because most Commodore Amiga computers never came with MIDI-ports built into it (Yes, I know the Commodore CDTV was a later exception). Personally I never missed them as I was not lucky enough to have been born with a sense of rhythm, which is apparently a requirement for being allowed to purchase music equipment. A few years ago I decided that I needed a Roland MT-32 in my life, but with prices the way they are I wasn't able to get very far. So I started building a set of PCBs for MT32-PI instead, these became the BulkyMIDI-32. Now all that was missing was the MIDI ports, so a simple RS-232 to MIDI adapter was thrown together so that I could have some way of of plugging a MIDI-cable into my Commodore Amiga 500 though it should also work with 500+/600/1200/2000/3000/4000. As using MIDI with Amiga isn't the easiest thing I've tried to figure out, I added a simple guide for getting started with using these devices on the Amiga computers as well.
Can be used with a real Roland MT-32 as well as other MT32-PI builds, but it was specifically tested with the BulkyMIDI-32. As I like to have a bit of cable with adapters, this variant was designed to be used with available 26-pin IDC to female DB25 cables. I've also shared a different version of the design where a standard right-angle PCB-mounted female DB25 can be used instead.

Not directly as that version requires larger polarised capacitors, 1uF. You can physically in there, but you may need to consult the datasheet to get the orientation correct.
