The download link at the bottom of the page https://dev.midi.org/specifications/item/the-midi-1-0-specification currently downloads the CC #88 document instead of the MIDI 1.0 specification.

Yes, The spec section is still under construction. We are planning on doing some more work on it tomorrow and try to get as much as possible ready for the official launch next week. Thanks for mentioning it, we will take care of that tomorrow for sure.

I figured the Web site might not be entirely ready yet. 🙂 It's showing great promise though, good work!

On the member's portal page, the text near the bottom of the page has a broken link. The sentence "So get connected, get creative and get involved... you can contact us here." the word "here" links to "https://dev.midi.org/contact-midi" instead of "https://dev.midi.org/contact-us"

Let me know if I should be reporting Web site problems elsewhere.

Cheers
Eddie

Thanks, and nice catch. We rebuilt the contact page and didn't change the link. You can post your comments here or email webmaster@midi.org directly.

Appreciate having other eyeballs on the site, we have been looking at the site for the past 6 months and sometimes we can't see the forest through the trees.:D

Are there any plans to make the messages on the previous MMA forum available to view?

Glad to see this resource. Glad to be here. Looking forward to engaging with the world's MIDI users.

Thanks for setting this up!

The head section of the MIDI News page has a typo on it: "relaases" instead of "releases" :p

This should be interesting. I'm brand spanking new to MIDI and hope to learn how it works and how to incorporate it into my future home recordings. The site looks great.

Thanks , Eddie. It's fixed now. If you see anything else, let us know!

Welcome, check out the tutorials on the site and we would love to get feedback on whether they are helpful. Also try going to courses and signing up with NonLinearEducating to get access to 94 hours of free video training on MIDI. We had a great meeting with them at NAMM and have plans to provide even better site integration and in the near future MIDI certification!

One early forum usage experience is that the forum header basically take one full screen so there is a lot of scrolling in order to navigate around the forum. I can see the need for the way it looks currently but would just love if the header was shorter than it is now. Making the image less tall would indeed improve the situation. Have to add that I do enlarge the page a bit in the browser to make it more readable.

I came across this text on the profile image page:
Maximum file upload size is 2.24 TB [main_upload_maxsize: 128M].

Its probably just a forum software setting that could benefit from having a slightly less liberal value given the usual size of profile images. Other types of file uploads may need more space though.

Two other technical things:

• when logging in, it takes you to the members page, instead of leaving you where you were (e.g.in a forum)
• when you are writing a question and the session times out, you just get "Invalid token" blank page. (and lose your text)

On the page
MANUFACTURER'S MIDI ID NUMBERS
https://www.midi.org/specifications/item/manufacturer-s-midi-id-numbers

The link "Apply for a Manufacturer MIDI ID" you missed a w the link is
https://ww.midi.org/sysex-id-request
It should be
https://www.midi.org/sysex-id-request

Glad to here there is going to be a new midi this one is well past it's sell by date and hindering technology.
