midi i/o
« on: Feb 19th, 2004, 7:58pm »

yeah you know it makes sense, pitch bending your visuals while virtuosically soloing away...
 
that is to say, how about adding midi devices to keyboard, mouse etc?

i was thinking this had been mentioned elsewhere.. but you can get access to midi via the javax.sound api, which should be accesible through p5. this will at least get you started until we actually add "real" support for it.

I'd just like to second the suggestion for midi support. My programming background is in ActionScript and Lingo so I really don't have the foggiest idea where to begin in adding Java api's and that sort of thing. I still feel like a Processing novice, but I'd really like to be able to use my MIDI controller to manipulate applets.

Neither Ben or myself use MIDI, so we won't be personally writing this code.  
But, we're setting up a Library system so anyone can extend Processing:

We'd be very happy to support someone to put a Processing code layer around Java MIDI.
