+.Sh SYNOPSIS

+.Cd "midi* at wss?"
+.Cd "pseudo-device sequencer"
+.Pp
+.Fd #include <sys/types.h>
+.Fd #include <sys/midiio.h>
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for various MIDI peripherals.
+It provides a uniform programming interface layer above different
+underlying MIDI hardware drivers. The MIDI hardware can be of many
+different kinds, e.g., an external synthesizer on a MIDI port (or a serial port),
+the PC speaker, an internal FM synth, or a wavetable synth.
+.Pp
+There are two device file types available for MIDI operation:
+.Pa /dev/rmidiN ,
+and
+.Pa /dev/music .
+The
+.Pa /dev/rmidiN
+devices provides raw access to a MIDI device. Data written is sent
+to the physical device as fast as possible and is uninterpreted.
+Reading from the device returns data as soon as it becomes available.
+A moderate amount of buffering is available both for reading and writing.
+The raw MIDI devices are mostly useful for non realtime operations, such as
+downloading patches to a device, since it is hard to get the accurate timing
+needed for quality music from a user program. But the devices can act as
+a simple patchboard for MIDI devices. For example, a MIDI keyboard could
+be connected to a synthesizer by the command
+.Cd "cat -u /dev/rmidi1 >/dev/rmidi2"
+.Pp
+The
+.Pa /dev/music
+device is a MIDI sequencer device. Data sent to and from this device
+not only contains the information sent to the MIDI device, but also
+timing information. The kernel will make sure that data is sent
+to the physical device at the indicated time. The sequencer device
+uses the
+.Pa /dev/midiN
+devices internally and they are unavailable when used by the sequencer.
+.Pp
+The API for the sequencer device is binary compatible with the OSS sequencer
+interface.

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for the Yamaha OPL2 (YM3812) and OPL3
+(YMF262) chips. The chips are FM synthezisers and are capable
+of producing a wide range of (mostly awful) sounds.
+.Pp
+Access to the device is through the MIDI driver.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver usually attaches to a sound card, but it can also sit
+directly on the ISA bus.
