Otherwise, the host can just bind however it wants.
It is a simple idea much older than that thread, just nobody
has done it
yet. Doing it statically is trivial: just set properties on
ports to
indicate their binding.
Absolutely. This is exactly what I'd like to do. Is there a reason we
shouldn't implement this before we figure out the more complicated
scenarios?
I have added the property midi:binding, i.e.
http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/midi#binding , to the MIDI extension. As far
as specs go, this is all that is required.
It is not documented online yet because the docs are not uploaded until
release, but it is in svn and you can build those docs if you want, but
essentially they boil down to the example:
port midi:binding [
a midi:Controller ;
midi:controllerNumber 17
] .
Have fun.
