I've just received the board a few days ago - the examples work fine for the Uno R3 as well as Thru-MIDI (board had been set up that way - had to use Pin 3 instead of Pin 4 for the Uno).
Examining the *.cpp and *.h files, it seems that the Uno uses SoftwareSerial (which assigns the Tx port to Pin 4 on the Uno), however, for the Feather (32u4 and M0) Tx is set for Serial1 (UART Tx).
However, when using a Pro Micro (32u4 based - similar to ItsyBitsy), I un-commented the //Serial1.begin() (assuming the Micro would be treated as a Feather), and connected the Micro's Tx pin (default as 1) to Pin 3 (Pin 4 has been bypassed on the Fluxa) - no luck, however, the Serial.print works fine.
Is there a simple solution for this?
Fluxamasynth and Pro Micro, Adafruit Itsy, etc.

dfdtitmouse,
Apologies for the long delay getting to the forum.
It seems like you made work in the intended way with a few boards. The 32U4 shouldn't be that different except for the USB connection - which resets on every upload.
Are you just trying to pass midi/serial through and have that work? Or trying to receive midi and retransmit?
I don't have a Pro Micro to test with but do have a 32U4 based board. If you post s little more specific setup with what you are trying to do I can try and replicate it and test.
