That was the time when I programmed and build MIDI equipment too, I
started using MIDI some years before in 1983 or 1984, with a DX7 and
4-track without a computer, but IIRC even in the early years there were
free/open projects, e.g. to MIDIfy CV/Gate synth. Some circuits and
software likely were not free/open, but public by piracy.
On the quick I found a book from 1990 ST and another one from 1988 C64.
