Use RaspberryPi as MIDI-Host and make a Bluetooth MIDI Controller send commands to a USB MIDI Device

Raspberry Pi/Linux MIDI Host

Intro

In the following step-by-step guide I demonstrate how to connect a bluetooth MIDI Controller to an USB MIDI Device using a Raspberry Pi as MIDI Host. It should be possible to use this guide to make any Linux (Debian/Ubuntu) System act as a MIDI Host.

In this example I use the following hardware:

[ MIDI Controller  ] --> [    MIDI Host   ] --> [  MIDI Device ]
[ M-Wave Chocolate ] --> [Raspberry Pi 3B+] --> [Zoom MS-70CDR+]
[ Sender ] --> [ Router ] --> [ Reciever ]
