I'll look and see if people have trouble with their arduino maybe taking a while to boot up and I'll double check the pins on the link cable too. That still wouldn't explain the midi in not working though.

EDIT: the pins on the link cable are correct and I re-uploaded the code again, the status LED doesn't blink for as long but it's still a good 10-15 seconds which is still longer than what I've seen other arduinoboys do. Is it possible that the arduino is bad? I'm going to try re-downloading the code and then uploading it to see if that makes a difference.

yes, that's the issue, I'm sending midi data, either through the gameboy or my Korg electribe MX and the LED's don't light up

I'm not trying to use those I just want the DMG to run as slave or master which are both settings I have on LSDJ and I set everything to the right setting on the arduinoboy too, does anyone know if I still need the unofficial LSDJ release if I just want to use the slave and master settings?
I checked my connections and they're good, I don't know if the fact that I'm using an arduino micro makes a difference (I'm pretty sure it shouldn't but I could be wrong) I tested all three of my DMG's so it's not a Gameboy issue. I'm just very confused because it seems everything works except my inputs

edit: I checked my connections with the link cable plugged into the gameboy and touched one end to the pin inside the gameboy and the other to the corresponding wire so the connection is good there. I reloaded the code onto the arduino and still nothing. Neither the korg or LSDJ cause the status light to light up at any point in any mode. Again I am using an arduino micro, does that change the pins at all? And like I said the status LED blinks for a really long time before doing the arduino start up thing, in all the videos I've seen of arduinoboys none of them did that. I'd really appreciate some feedback cause I don't want to find out I've wasted $80 on this project
