Dear Enrico,
sorry for the delayed reply. It would be great to have such MIDI I/O
in Oz! Perhaps it would be a good idea to do it in a platform-
independent way. For example, there is MidiShare (http://
midishare.sourceforge.net/) which already provides bindings for
various programming languages (C, C++, Common Lisp, Pascal, Java...)
and music systems, and there is PortMidi (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/
~music/portmusic/), which is also used already by several systems.
I recall some guys (some Maarten?) where working on MIDI device
support for windows. They released MozMidi, for reading and writing
MIDI files at
http://www.snowlion.nl/mozart/
They reported, that their MIDI device support for windows is
finished, by it was never release: you may contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I myself did MIDI file I/O simply via midicsv (http://
www.fourmilab.ch/webtools/midicsv/), which transforms MIDI to/from
text files with a very simple syntax. I can share a Mozart parser for
this format, but it is really rather easy..
Best
Torsten

Hello. Have someone tried to control MIDI devices in Oz?
My need is to listen to a MIDI keyboard and to react to the notes with
a flow of MIDI notes sent to a MIDI port, for an assisted music
teaching app.
Given the simplicity of this task, I suppose one doesn't need to do
complex foreign calls to linux libraries. Looking around the various
ALSA and OSS stuff, it seems that it's enough to open (and read/write
through select) some device, like /dev/midi*
Am I correct? Is there a simple way to do this in Oz?
Enrico
