<DIV><BR></DIV>Hey,<BR><BR>I'd advise C++ & RtMidi if you've done any OOP
before, I started out with that combination,<BR>there are some good examples
on the <A href="http://www.music.mcgill.ca/%7Egary/rtmidi/">RtMidi

its cross-platform.<BR><BR>And I'd advise you to start with "normal"
scheduling (I've never coded an RT app, but MIDI apps works<BR>100% realtime
for me without any upgrading of priority).<BR><BR>Good luck,
