About:

I have been working in the Electronics Industry for the past 30 years. I spent nearly 15 years working in maintenance and design in the Irish national broadcasting organisation, RTE. More recently I have been employed in the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) lecturing in Computer and Electronic Engineering and in Music Technology. I have also published a number of articles on topics including audio, music and MIDI in particular. 

I have now designed and produced a number of MIDI circuit designs using the ATmega168 series of micro-controllers. The designs are based on the Arduino and are compatible with the open-source IDE which can be downloaded for free (currently for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux).
