Re: MIDI externals
If this can help, I think you could work this out via MIDI-OX. It's a virtual MIDI manager that can be controled via VBS/WSH... There's a section of the page below dedicated to scripting it... Im sure this will save you hours of externals writing... http://www.midiox.com/ here's what it does... MIDI-OX is a Windows 95/NT program (also Win98/Me/2000/XP). It is a 32 bit program which will not operate under earlier versions of Windows. MIDI-OX is a multi-purpose tool: it is both a diagnostic tool and a System Exclusive librarian. It can perform filtering and mapping of MIDI data streams. It displays incoming MIDI streams, and passes the data to a MIDI output driver or the MIDI Mapper. You can generate MIDI data using the computer keyboard or the built-in control panel. You can even record and log MIDI data and then convert it to a Standard MIDI File for playback by a sequencer. Some additional information is available in the MIDI and Audio FAQ. And it's free... for non-commercial use... cheers Xavier [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 24/08/2005 07:58:53: --- Ken Norris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Howdy, Is there an external for Windows (I think they're called DLL's?) that will select instruments and play MIDI notes instantly?

Hi Erik, Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2005 22:58:53 -0700 (PDT) From: Erik Hansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: MIDI externals On Aug 24, 2005, at 4:51 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- Ken Norris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Howdy, Is there an external for Windows (I think they're called DLL's?) that will select instruments and play MIDI notes instantly?

It's designed to play a sequence, which is not what I need. It has to play a note or a chord instantly, it can't hesitate. Imagine an onscreen keyboard that plays exactly like a real piano, i.e., if you drag across the keys, it plays the note instantly as soon as you drag into a 'key', and also stops playing a note as soon as you drag out of a key. It can do up to 8 or 9 note polyphony. I'm using an external in SuperCard that accomplishes this (QuickNotes), but, of course, it won't work on a Windows box.

MIDI externals
Howdy, Is there an external for Windows (I think they're called DLL's?) that will select instruments and play MIDI notes instantly? Not necessarily a song sequence, but a note or chord. It's for an onscreen keyboard, i.e., must play the note instantaneously on mouseDown. Actually, I'm looking for it to play like a piano, when the user drags over the 'keys', but that's more a scripting issue. I have one working in SuperCard on the Mac, using QuickNotes. I wouldn't mind building a cross-platfrom version, but it has to perform as I indicated.

Hi Ken, Shakobox for Windows won't work for you? (Sorry... that's all I can think of).
