Anyone sitting and hoping for anything midi is pretty much flogging a dead horse. Keyboard manufacturers leave some basic midi in their keyboards but they wouldn't sell one at the price if that's all that was there.

I don't think it will survive another 5 years.

I do remember basic DOS, like TRS-Dos and a few others, and the start of midi. It's being left in the dust. The only reason Ketron makes a module is that it's the same stuff they put in their keyboard, without the keyboard part.

I can't for the life of me see a future in any part of midi.

I still have a midi organ, 2 keyboards, 2 modules and 4 software midi things, but all are relics of the past.

As technology improves the need for midi fades, and I don't see groups like Roland and yamaha saying to each other, let's come up with another midi standard...
