A MUID (MIDI unique identifier) is the 28-bit number a device answers to in MIDI-CI messages and function blocks. MidiUniqueId holds one, keeps each of its four bytes to 7 bits, and formats it for display.
The specification calls the least significant byte Byte1 and the most significant byte Byte4, and this class does the same.

Description |
MidiUniqueId() |
Creates an empty MUID |
MidiUniqueId(combined28BitValue) |
Creates a MUID from a 28-bit number |
MidiUniqueId(sevenBitByte1, sevenBitByte2, sevenBitByte3, sevenBitByte4) |
Creates a MUID from four 7-bit bytes, least significant first |
Properties
| Property |
Description |
Byte1 |
Byte 1 of the MUID, the least significant. When you set a byte, only its lower 7 bits are kept |
Byte2 |
Byte 2 of the MUID |
Byte3 |
Byte 3 of the MUID |
Byte4 |
Byte 4 of the MUID, the most significant |
AsCombined28BitValue |
The MUID as one 28-bit number |
IsBroadcast |
True if this is the broadcast MUID, 0x0FFFFFFF, which is addressed to every device |
IsReserved |
True if this is one of the MUIDs the MIDI-CI specification sets aside, from 0x0FFFFF00 to 0x0FFFFFFE |
Methods

Description |
CreateBroadcast() |
Creates the broadcast MUID, which is addressed to every device |
CreateRandom() |
