MIDI Association Generic MIDI 1.0: MIDI CC, NRPN and OSC map¶
The MIDI Association Generic MIDI 1.0 as named OSC addresses — 55 CC, 47 drum sounds — ready to use from Claude (MCP), SuperCollider, Sonic Pi, TouchDesigner or any OSC app via osc-bridge.

Not tested on the device yet
This driver comes from documentation or community data and has not been checked on real hardware. If you own one, a quick test and a pull request promoting it helps everyone — see CONTRIBUTING.
How do you control it?¶
Find the MIDI ports, then start the bridge with this driver:
osc-bridge detect # prints the ready-to-run line for what is plugged in
osc-bridge run --device devices/midi-association/generic_midi_1_0.json --out-port <N> --in-port <M>
Then send OSC to 127.0.0.1:7777, for example:
From Claude or any MCP client, the osc-bridge mcp server exposes this driver as generic_midi_1_0: ask “what can the MIDI Association Generic MIDI 1.0 do?” and it reads this map with list_routes. See the MCP guide.

Performance MIDI¶
Notes, pitch bend and any CC are also available: /generic_midi_1_0/note/on <note> <velocity>, /generic_midi_1_0/cc/<number> <value>, /generic_midi_1_0/pitchbend <0-16383>, /generic_midi_1_0/program_change <n>.
Limitations¶
CC/NRPN only. SysEx (preset management, display control, bulk dump/load, vendor-proprietary opcodes) is NOT covered by pencilresearch. To extend this device with SysEx, sniff the vendor editor, add `sysex.header/footer` + `commands` blocks, and use `update_device.md` PR template.
