Hi,
I'm looking at connecting together multiple Teensy via their Tx and Rx pins so they can communicate using MIDI.
I'm wondering if I can do this:
So basically connecting all of their Tx and Rx together. They would all act as Masters so they can possibly all send and receive (like the 3 at the top in the picture).
I'm not sure if that's called a "Multi-drop" architecture, if someone can confirm/or not?
What's not apparent on the picture is, they would have diodes on their Tx, so Tx would only send and not receive.
Also they would have their ground connected together.
Because they would use MIDI, messages are broadcasted to everyone but they have a "channel" number so only the devices listening on the same channel would react.
Is that something possible? Without involving more electronic than just wires and diodes?
Thanks
