Hi all,

I have an external drum machine inputting midi notes into Processing via USB - I can println the raw midi data but can't figure out how to convert that raw midi into something I can use (ie. place a 'get' to trigger certain effects when sending a 'd' midi note into Processing. I was wondering if anyone had successfully done anything like this? I must be missing something. There aren't many open midi projects online and it is difficult when all you have is a little knowledge about the overall concepts.

Thanks! Am constantly amazed by some of the skill level on this board.

This should really be quite straight forwards to do from the examples included in themidibus library ...

something like this:

Code:

import themidibus.*;

MidiBus bus;

void setup() {
  bus = new MidiBus(this, "MyInput", "MyOutput");
}

void draw() {

}

void noteOn(int channel, int pitch, int velocity) {
  if(pitch == 62) { //The D above middle C
    //Do something here
  }
}
