I've followed the
instructions but there was an error message "Can't open
"/usr/lib/libporttime.so " " Undefined
Symbol ....Thread....."
so I put this line --- (cffi:load-foreign-library
"/usr/lib/libpthread.so") --- to portmidi.lisp after the
comments
;;; linux: guess i need to load porttime.so first (?) osx doesnt seem
;;; to need this lib at all...
and works fine.
i dont understand - do you have libporttime.so installed in
/usr/local/lib or not?
im not sure how/why loading libpthread fixes anything.
I'm new on this area with cm,clm,cmn,portmidi so i'd like to ask you
if it is better to use portmidi or
midishare for real-time midi i/o and will i need rts for real-time
interaction?
"better" is in the eyes of the beholder. portmidi is bascially a
lightweight connection to the host midi system. midishare is a larger,
more "monolithic" system for doing midi. midishare api is probaly
better for sending lots of data since you use typeNote and avoid having
to schedule/send noteOffs.
rts lets you shedule musical processes to run in real time. if you dont
need processes you can just send data over using (pm:output ) for
portmidi and (ms:output ) for midishare.
i hope this answers your questions.
best,
rick
