The problem with what you want (having "midi

is we don't have a plugin format that supports MIDI yet. Like
everything else, we just have to wait on GMPI for this. :(
*cough* yes we do, DSSI. It accepts alsa-seq format MIDI structs.

The more I think about this mini-DSSI-plugins (ie super LADSPA) the more
I like it.
I'm going to write a DSSI sample-player plugin that simply plays a
sample when a gate input goes high. Doesn't care about MIDI at all. Is
this doable?
Yeah, sure, but you may as well make it pay attention to MIDI too (or
have another version that does), its very easy and will be useful to more
people.
NB writing a DSSI plugins is more effort than a LADSPA plugin - at least
for me, but we tied to make simple things still simple-ish.
