Arduino Nano Every not working with MIDI USB

blockiindahood opened this issue · comments

Hey there,
I am trying to get my Nano Every (Atmega4809) running with this libary and MIDI over USB.
As far as I know the Nano Every has native USB Support, and also the Example I am using has in it's description the Nano Every mentioned as working.
Am I doing something wrong, or is it not compatible?

The Nano Every does not have native USB support, it has a secondary ATSAMD11 chip that translates between USB and serial, see https://docs.arduino.cc/resources/datasheets/ABX00028-datasheet.pdf#3-3-usb-bridge.

While you can reprogram the SAMD11 with MIDI firmware, the main ATmega4809 that your Arduino sketch is running on does not support (MIDI over) USB.

MIDI over USB documentation: https://tttapa.github.io/Control-Surface-doc/Doxygen/d8/d4a/md_pages_MIDI-over-USB.html

Oh okay, I see, then I was wrong.
Thank you.

Does anyone know if the Seeed XIAO SAMD21 does work?

This forum post says yes.
