USB CDC Driver for Windows The Zebra CDC driver conforms to the Microsoft Windows Driver Model (WDM) and is certified by Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL) for installation on 32 and 64bit Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 PCs when a Zebra Scanner must be used in USB CDC host mode.

All drivers available for download have been scanned by antivirus program. Maximum Speed using Microchip HID driver (18F25) The 'baud rate' (like 115K for example) is completely meaningless in the CDC world - the 'baud' rate across USB is always as fast as the PC can schedule things (which can be up to 700KB/s in bursts). It is only when you take the data that has been sent to the PIC. Back in November of 2004, Windows based operating systems did not provide any drivers suitable for general purpose read/write interfacing with a vendor/custom class USB device. Therefore, Microchip developed and released the mchpusb.sys custom USB driver to help satisfy this industry need.
CHANDLER, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Microchip Technology Inc., (NASDAQ: MCHP),a leading provider of microcontroller, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today announced the HID-class MCP2210 USB to SPI protocol converter—the simplest, smallest-footprint and most cost-effective option for adding USB-Certified connectivity to SPI-based systems. Microchip also provides free downloads of supporting software drivers, DLLs and a PC configuration tool, in addition to an evaluation board, to make it fast and simple for designers without USB expertise to add USB connectivity. The converter comes in small, 20-pin SSOP and 5x5 mm QFN packages, for space-constrained applications. Additionally, the MCP2210 has nine flexible, general-purpose I/O that can be configured via a PC as standard digital I/O pins or in alternate configurations, providing additional system I/O that simplify designs and support a wide range of applications.
According to eTForecasts, current annual PC shipments are greater than 300M and are projected to grow to more than 500M within the next four years. While most PCs have standardized on USB as the primary protocol for connecting to other devices, many of those devices still utilize the SPI protocol. In combination with the above features, software and tools, the MCP2210 converter utilizes the USB HID class, which is supported by the Windows®, Linux and Mac OS® operating systems, and is a 100% plug-and-play solution, making it even simpler to add USB to existing designs for data collection, transfer and analysis, along with many other USB functions.
“USB connectivity continues to be one of our customers’ most requested items,” said Bryan J. Liddiard, marketing vice president of Microchip’s Analog and Interface Products Division. “Microchip’s PIC® microcontroller families with integrated USB functionality continue to expand. This MCP2210 USB to SPI protocol converter and supporting tools give customers a simple, small-footprint and cost-effective option to add USB connectivity to SPI-based systems.”

I'm building a device that I want to communicate with a computer using MIDI over a USB connection. There are lots of USB MIDI devices that are class-compliant and thus require no special drivers, which is exactly what I want.
I was hoping that I could use a microcontroller with hardware USB (e.g., MSP430) or a FTDI-style serial-to-USB chip to do this, but it seems like none of them support setting the device descriptors to identify as a MIDI device. So how can I accomplish this? Do I need a dedicated USB controller MCU?
I have only a fractured understanding of USB, but I've tried to read the USB MIDI spec.
I'm aware of serial-to-MIDI converter software, but it's not what I'm looking for here.

$begingroup$There is no chip that would support USB MIDI in hardware (except the QinHeng CH345, which is buggy, and the MFM0860, which also is buggy).
You can use any general-purpose USB microcontroller for USB MIDI.However, you have to write all of the firmware yourself, or modify the software for some existing protocol (like CDC).
In the case of the MSP430, you would not be able to use the Descriptor Tool but had to construct the descriptors by hand.
There are also several open-source USB MIDI implementations for 8051-based microcontrollers; and the LUFA library for AVR and NXP chips. Cypress has a USB MIDI library for their PSoC chips.
If your device is generating the MIDI commands (as opposed to receiving MIDI data from somewhere else), you do not need to parse the MIDI stream to convert it into USB MIDI event packets, and your implementation becomes easier.
CL.CL.Then Teensy USB Development Board is an off the shelf prototyping microcontroller board that uses an ARM chip. It can support many types of USB input/output including MIDI:
Teensy MIDI Library
It is compatible with the arduino IDE and many of the arduino libraries. The MIDI library is an easy to use interface.
