Output MIDI to other programs

Post by kenmo »

Is there a way in PB to register your app as a MIDI device, recognizable and usable by other running programs?
(Would this be a MIDI driver essentially?)

It doesn't have to be cross platform (I'm on Windows XP), I just want to be able to generate MIDI messages in my program and have another music program receive them.

Ideas?

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

Hello there,

Do you guys ever figured out how to do it? I'm in the process of writing a program that would need such a functionality! I'm thinking about using the excellent MidiYoke NT but I would prefer a more elegant solution (Virtual MIDI port). I'll take a look at the up previous links, thanks in advance!

Best,

I'm also interested in this - did either of you get anywhere with it?
