Though maybe Kitsch, or whoever is developing the everdrive carts would want to know where to get such shells.
I'd be a fan of either, TBH. I'd somehow think that access to any MIDI implementation would make sense with a special cart, but updates to the software might be harder to achieve (?). Maybe building in MIDI connection through something like the GENMDM (accessing/using the 2nd controller port for MIDI) would work for that. What turns me off to GENMDM though is that I don't want to have a computer on stage and would much rather just sync everything with standard DIN MIDI cables.
Either way, if this gets released I'm ready to buy it
If there were to be GENMDM capabilities within this tracker, I believe that they'd have to be software based, as GENMDM is a cartridge in itself, so its capabilities are only possible when the hardware/software(mainly) is available through the cartridge slot. It's a possibility that little-scale could provide the source for GENMDM, which could be meshed with this tracker to provide controller port 2 MIDI capabilities.
