Hi Stuart,
pic16f84a is an older chip, I would use pic16F874 or another in this
serie. There is a number of free programmer software, e.g. ic-prog and
inexpensive do-it-youself programmers. PIC16F87* will make your life
easier because they have hardware serial port and more memory.
Also, I think NutsNVolts had several projects on MIDI devices, might be
a good idea to see how other people did it.
