Phil worked on the new MIDI feature in the Android 6.0 Marshmallow release, and joins the podcast to talk about MIDI (history as well as Android implementation), electronic music, and other audio-related topics.<br /> <br /> Bryan said it was his favorite episode so far. But then Bryan's an audio engineer, so he might be slightly biased.<br /> <br /> <i>Android MIDI: It's music to our ears.</i><br /> <br /> Subscribe to the <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/AndroidDevelopersBackstage" target="_blank">podcast feed</a> or download the <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/androiddevelopers/android_developers_backstage/ADB%2039%20MIDI.mp3" target="_blank">audio file</a> directly.<br /> <br /> <b>Relevant Links</b><br /> <br /> <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/midi/package-summary.html" target="_blank">Android MIDI</a><br /> <a href="http://developer.android.com/samples/MidiSynth/index.html" target="_blank">MidiSynth Example</a><br /> <a href="https://github.com/philburk/android-midisuite" target="_blank">More Examples</a><br /> <a href="http://www.softsynth.com/hmsl/" target="_blank">HMSL</a><br /> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Polansky" target="_blank">Larry Polansky</a><br /> <br /> <b>Tor</b>: <a href="http://google.com/+TorNorbye">google.com/+TorNorbye</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/tornorbye" target="_blank">@tornorbye</a><br /> <b>Chet</b>: <a href="http://google.com/+ChetHaase">google.com/+ChetHaase</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/chethaase" target="_blank">@chethaase</a><br /> <br /> <i>Thanks to continued tolerance and support by our audio engineer, Bryan Gordon.</i></div> <img alt="" height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/AndroidDevelopersBackstage/~4/ajZPGcSsKoA" width="1" />
