Would anyone on the list happen to be familiar with MIDI::ALSA from CPAN? There doesn't seem to be much documentation, and the example programs seem to have everything but the kitchen sink in them. (I can't separate the bare necessities from the sink and the dishwasher...) It's a shot in the dark, but if anyone might be able to post a short "hello world" type code example of how to connect to a port and do sysex transmit with it, I'd very much appreciate it. -- - Brent Busby + =============================================== + "With the rise of social networking -- Keycorner -- + sites, computers are making people -- Recording -- + easier to use every day." ----------------+ ===============================================
