New API in MIDIBridge

Deprecated, please use Chris Wilson’s WebMIDIAPI Shim The new API is an implementation in Java and Javascript of the W3C proposal for MIDI support in browsers by

Jussi Kalliokoski. You can read the proposal here. Besides the API that Jussi proposes, I have also added some extra functionality, notably a Sequencer. The documentation still is very scarce, I will add it bit by bit the coming weeks. Meanwhile the code examples provide useful information on using the new API. All code is available at Github and you can test the code examples online as well: 1. A basic example. code | launch 2. Connects your your computer keyboard to a MIDI output. code | launch 3. Example that lets you select a MIDI input and a MIDI output. code | launch 4. Same example as above, but the MIDI output gets connected directly in Java which results in better playback performance. If your application does a lot of graphical updates on incoming MIDI events, you should use this method. code | launch 5. Select a MIDI file on your local hard drive and play it back on a MIDI output. You can change the instrument as well. code | launch 6. Same example as above, but the MIDI output gets connected directly in Java which results in better playback performance. code | launch 7. Example of how you can send MIDI events generated in Javascript to a MIDI output. code | launch If you come across bugs or issues, or if you have feature requests or other questions, file an
