Subject: [Csnd] Multiple MIDI Input Devices?

I believe Rick made this developer request some time ago; I don't recall a response to it.

What I'd like is an expansion of the -M flag, to include a comma-delineated list of input devices.

Example (for Windows): -M0,8,11

The idea is for a .csnd file to be able to recognize and process MIDI input from several devices.

Such would not be necessary if USB controllers had "USB Thru" comparable to "MIDI Thru." Or for that matater if there were "USB Merge" similar to "MIDI Merge" boxes.

I realize the MIDIOx can do this in software on the PC, and there is a comparable utility on the Mac. (I'm thinking though of Linux on the OLPC.)

I want to stay away from a software utility, however, as I need to keep everything as simple as possible for kids (OLPC).

This would appear to be a rather minimal developer task as long as PortMIDI, etc., allowed it. I suppose, too, that the implementation would involve supporting MIDI libraries for the various platforms. (I'm particularly concerned about Linux, as I'd like to get collaborative Activities developed for Sugar that involve kids using multiple MIDI controllers on the same OLPC. The controllers I want to use are all USB, as they wouldn't require an additional power source.)

I'd appreciate developer response on such a possibility.

Yes, I would like to know as well.
Will the new edition have a chapter on
PVS opcodes?
