Your Setup

Clean Raspberry Pi OS install. The provision script handles everything — just paste the command above and wait for the build to finish.

Verify Installation

sudo systemctl status midi-admin
curl http://localhost:8080/api/status

Notes

●Build takes ~10-15 minutes on Pi 4, ~5 minutes on Pi 5
●The script requires sudo — it installs system packages and creates a system user
●For dual-stream redundancy, repeat on a second Pi
●Admin dashboard available at http://<pi-ip>:8080 after install
