Ken Shirriff has a pretty handy, fairly well-written library for doing IR remote control (send and receive) on the Arduino. I can't post links in comments of course, but if you google "ken shirriff ir arduino", you'll find it.
I've used it myself to implement a control for a camcorder.

Basic midi isn`t really that hard to implement even on bare avr with gcc and avr-libc, just use the internal usart with an optocoupler. In this case where you only need to consider note on events, it is even easier since you don`t need to handle note off events accordingly which can get a bit complicated (keeping track of which notes are currently playing, will that note off affect anything, is it sent as note on with 0 velocity etc.).

@scancool Mini-USB was a hack by a bunch of vendors that has sadly become widely used. Micro-USB is a proper standard from the USB forum. It puts the breakable parts in the male plug i.e the replaceable cable instead of your expensive gadget.
Micro-USB is also the standard now for charging mobile phones. I don't know why you have trouble finding cables. In what part of the world are you?

@scancool Besides be a genius, buy like 10 of them, use 2 and ebay the rest of them to make a good profit for future projects.
Goodluck.
