I'd like to do some algorithmic composing using python. I've seen various libraries that seem to be capable of sending a MIDI message to a MIDI port, but I don't know where to get the timing from. Normally, with something like CSOUND, the program locks itself to the timing of the soundcard and presumably uses that for timing.
Is there anything for python that could do this? I've seen rather ridiculous examples using sleeps for timing, but for musical applications the timing really needs to come form a hardware soundcard, especially as I'd like to play audio through the card at the same time and have it line up perfectly with the MIDI. Thanks for any suggestions. Toby -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
