Hi Bob, I'm not sure what your development setup is but I found it very helpful to use the Web IDE when developing https://faust.grame.fr/ide/ . This has a dropdown menu that lets you choose the MIDI input that controls your .dsp. I believe this only works in Chrome because of the WebMIDI implementation.
If you look at the tutorial https://faust.grame.fr/doc/tutorials/#adding-an-envelope-generator it shows the basic setup for a MIDI controlled synthesizer. The "gate", "freq", and "gain" variables will be connected automatically to incoming MIDI "gate", "midinote", and "velocity" respectively. If you are outside of the IDE I believe you have to have MIDI enabled with declare options "[midi:on]"; and if you need polyphony declare options "[nvoices:12]"; at the top of your .dsp file. There are more options explained in https://faust.grame.fr/doc/manual/#midi-and-polyphony-support . How you connect different MIDI controllers outside of the Web IDE will depend a lot on which platform you are compiling the DSP for. I hope that helps, Thadeus http://www.creativecontrol.cc On Wed, Sep 23, 2020 at 5:43 PM Bob Bobsled <thebobbobs...@gmail.com> wrote: > How does one play a .dsp instrument using an external usb midi keyboard? > I would like to play the midi keyboard keys and hear the frequency > associated with the > midi key being played.
