How about storing MIDI data as a custom property in a substack?


Even if this is done, you still need to copy the binary data contained in the custom property to a temporary MIDI file (invisible if desired), to which the the player's filename is assigned. According to the 3.0 User Guide, audio/video QT players must always reference a discreet file.

MIDI is usually used polyphonically by combining musical tracks into a single file or stream. But, as an experiment, I referenced 3 MIDI files and played them as follows:

on mouseUp
   start player "whole"
   start player "half"
   start player "quarter"
end mouseUp

They remained exactly in sync throughout their play duration. So I guess that you could, ***on a reasonably recent computer***, expect that you can "mix" MIDI sound sequences. On older models (ca. < 1 gHz), who knows?
