Gertboard is the ideal add-on for Raspberry Pi. Designed by Gert van Loo, it is a flexible experimenter board that plugs directly into your Raspberry Pi, and out into the physical world, allowing you to detect and respond to external physical events. Detect and output analogue voltages. Drive powerful motors. Detect switch presses. Illuminate LEDs and drive relays. Jumper cables allow you to hook up different parts of the circuit in many different ways, allowing total flexibility. All controlled by your own Raspberry Pi.

Testers are required to produce a full, comprehensive and well thought out review within 2 months of receipt of the product.
Failure to provide this review within the above timescale will result in the enrolee being excluded from future Road Tests.
Everyone, as it seems, is talking about the Gertboard and how all of these amazing things can be done using the Raspberry Pi. I bought my Raspberry Pi last October, and I'm doing 99% software-related work as my jumper wires to solderless breadboard look too ugly. Hopefully, I could win a Gertboard so I can do the stuff I've only dreamed about.
Looking at the specifications you should be able to drive a Midi device with the Gertboard but there do seem to be examples on the web of people running Midi projects directly from the Pi without the need for the Gertboard.
