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

Hey Carlos, Python & the wiimote is a nice combo, i've played with it and midi a little too.. Not at all familiar with desktop applet coding, so ill leave that to the pro's! As far as the "what midi CC bindings" are useful, could you put in a "Drop-down-box" or "Entry-Box" for the CC's? Because there will always be some use for it. Perhaps have an "Advanced" section, in which one can manually type the CC Numbers, and have the "Simple" section up with a drop down of the most common CC's? Becuase I can really see the use of having a wiiMote around for debugging audio/midi progams with you applet. It would mean you could easily send any Midi CC's to a program using an "Easy-Access" unit. (IE: pick it up, use it, not like a keyboard where you'd spend time mapping a key to a different MIDI CC etc) Hope the project goes well for you, once im home ill check how much is done and where to get the Alpha release.. ;-) -Harry On Sun, Aug 2, 2009 at 3:32 PM, Carlos Sanchiavedraz <csanchezgs(a)gmail.com>wrote;wrote: > I have notice I forgot to send this mail to LAD as well.
