[gmpi] Re: MIDI: Proposed Reqs (try #3)

Looks great.


//FIXME: need clarity! 
 Req. 72: HW/SW STUDIO ROUTING/MANAGEMENT - It must be possible to
 effectively route MIDI 1.0 connections  (though the in-graph data
 need not necessarily be in pure MIDI 1.0 format) between proxied MIDI
 HW devices and/or other GMPI plugins in the same GMPI graph, using
only
the GMPI API.

I think what this is saying is, if you have "pure" GMPI plugins in a
graph being fed by a MIDI host, then the pure plugins need to never
cause MIDI data loss.  Chris?

More like: It is a valid application of GMPI to have a graph that does nothing but enables MIDI connections between units (any combination of SW and proxied HW), and when used that way, GMPI must provide performance indistinguishable from MIDI over DIN (except for the message time quantization/reordering artifacts caused by repacketizing the MIDI stream).
