[LAD] Fwd: Python and MIDI orientation for a project

I have notice I forgot to send this mail to LAD as well. Sorry :) Here it is. Of course, thanks in advance. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Carlos Sanchiavedraz <csanchezgs(a)gmail.com> Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2009 19:18:17 +0200 Subject: Python and MIDI orientation for a project To: linux-audio-user <Linux-audio-user(a)lists.linuxaudio.org> Hi folks. I'm cooperating with a friend and fellow to improve his project related to wiimote. The project is Wiican[1]. In short, it is a tool (a system tray icon actually) that makes it easier to connect the wiimote and configure and create key mappings for use at your will. It's written in python and uses bluez, hal with dbus, wminput and cwiid. My goal is to add some layer in such a way that you can map wiimote events to MIDI. And maybe, to include it on the next improved release of Musix. So, in adittion to my researches on the subject and what I already know about MIDI CCs and so, I would like some advice and guidance about how to: - implement MIDI in python (which CCs are a must for you, create and send MIDI messages, libs, bindings, reference projects), - implement Jack and Alsa MIDI ports in python (libs, bindings, reference projects), ... and every other interesting information or experiences on this. Thanks in advance. [1] https://launchpad.net/wiican -- Carlos "Sanchiavedraz" * Musix GNU+Linux http://www.musix.es -- Carlos "Sanchiavedraz" * Musix GNU+Linux http://www.musix.es
