Actually, the Gogins package for Win32 does not include the PortMidi plugin (pmidi.dll) for some reason. While using the native MME plugin instead may be OK, -+rtmidi=mme could have been added to .csoundrc. > -+rtmidi=PortMidi runs CS5 but no midi is > getting in and no mention of what device is being used. > Also tried this: > csound -W -+rtaudio=PortAudio -odevaudio21 -+rtmidi=portMIDI -M0 -b16 > -B64 my.orc my.sco > > Runs, but again no midi gets through.

You should get errors like this one (replace 'portMIDI' with whatever you have specified for -+rtmidi, unless it is something like null, winmm, or mme): error: -+rtmidi='portMIDI': unknown module *** error opening MIDI in device: -1 (Unknown MIDI error) I tested it and the error is printed and performance is aborted.
