Hey man this is a very cool program. I am planning on doing something similar, but with an added GUI to show the notes being pressed on the midi keyboard. What libraries / packages did you use to accomplish this?
@cybraxcyberspace Yeah I've looked at website, that looks like the library I will use. How complicated was it to make this program? And much total code did you end up having? Thanks for help.
@zellster With the midiiolib Quite easy I use visual studio created an empty c++ project added the files and set the project parameters, compiled instantly no problem for me, to read and display is maybe 5 lines (no other fancy stuff) 3 examples are included which are really easy to understand.
@cybraxcyberspace could you explain what you mean by project parameters? I had a go at trying to get it going in Visual Studio but have had no luck.
Was it the files in the /src or /include directory you added?
