If I'm not mistaken, that's exactly what Christian is doing. Unfortunately, it can be a little annoying if you have to run several different applications just to use your MIDI equipment. It would have been much better if the midi_server used userland add-ons just like the Media Kit does. Then the midi_server would no longer have to talk to device drivers from /dev/midi either, as there would be an add-on for this. Unfortunately, that's not how it works right now and I don't think we'll change that for OpenBeOS R1 either. > I will try to find the code for the application and if I do > you can have the copyright as I'll most likely be ashamed of it :) Cool, any kind of Midi Kit code is welcome :-) Matthijs
