Title: Win32 MIDI Programming Question
Post by Larry Salomon Jr. on Aug 21^st, 2005, 3:35pm

Jamie,

Looking at the documentation for midiConnect MSDN says that you can connect one input to one output only, or you can use a MIDI Thru device. It refers to a Thru device as if it were a software construct.

The problem is that in my C# application, whenver the MIDI SDK that I'm using raises a ChannelMessageReceived event, I try to send that to a single output device. But it seems that there is timing issue of some sort or the SDK is just unusable, so I started looking into the midiConnect API.

I realize that, if all else fails, I can use my application with MIDI-Yoke and MIDI-Ox to get the desired result. But that's 2 extra applications running on a somewhat old laptop. I'm trying to avoid taxing it more than I have to.

So, can you offer any insight as to how a many-to-many connection is established in MIDI?

Excuse me i dont speak English very well!

WINMM.Lib is very good library to work with
MIDI in low level API ! I try it in C or C++ !
Go to this site this:

P.S :

I can connect the different devices (IN,OUT) through the graphical user interface of "midiox" with a drag&drop!

is it possible to create a "vbscript" program that it allows me to do this?

Is there an example?

This for me is very important!

Thanks
