Reverse-engineering MIDI devices, AKAI MPK Mini Mk3

Read Original

The article details a developer's project to reverse-engineer the AKAI MPK Mini Mk3 MIDI controller. Instead of using it for music, they reprogram it to control PC functions like audio volume, workspace navigation, wallpaper changes, and file transfers. It covers the motivation, the process of discovering and overriding the device's preset system, and the technical benefits of deep integration for automation.
