I'd like to make a MIDI sound from a Python program. PyGame's midi module was supposed to do it, but it doesn't seem to have a default midi output device - or any midi output device!
pygame.midi.get_default_output_id() returns -1. Half an hour of googling didn't help. Looking at the unit tests didn't help (there's a bugfix aimed at this problem, but it seems to just bypass the test). The mixer module can indeed read a midi file and make a sound come out the speakers, but I'd rather drive the midi directly instead of writing mini-files and playing them... What should I pass in to pygame.midi.Output() on 10.5? Or what should I do to create the midi device so that pygame.midi.get_default_output_id() will tell me something other than -1? Thanks...
