Making music with your Mill.

WARNING WARNING WARNING! 

Before reading further, you can and will seriously break your equipment if you do not know what you are doing. Continuing further requires :

1: Some degree of understanding of Python Code  (really just how to edit out changes)
2: A good degree of understanding soft limits and zeroing on your CNC
3: The ability to load and run code outside of your OEM structure (revo/roland/haas etc)

you will need

1: Download script at http://tim.cexx.org/?tag=midi2cnc
2: Download Python 2.7 at http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7/
3: download midi files to play with. avoid files with "beats"

On my Minitech I had to edit out a line, #181, I simply deleted it from the script, and the script requires a few inputs to be changed before you run it. If it seems daunting , its not, think of it as  a really fancy batch file. I have outlined the basics in this video

(those who just wanna hear cool Midi music on a mill skip to next 4 videos.)
