Is it possible to use MIDI.Player without a soundfont? #111

Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible to use the MIDI.Player without loading a SoundFont?

Just need the note information for each note played in a MIDI file, via a callback in:

MIDI.Player.addListener(...)

Tried something like:

MIDI.loadPlugin(function() {

  player = MIDI.Player;
  player.loadFile( song[songid], player.start );

  player.addListener( midiNotePlayedCallback );

  MIDI.loader.stop();
});

but get back a Cross origin error (from a request for a SoundFont file that I don't need).

P.s. Asked a similar question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27192728/receive-note-events-from-a-midi-file-with-javascript

I was coming to ask the same question. Did you find any way for that @bthj ?

Thanks

Nope, I haven't yet found a way to do that.

Not unless you're on the Chrome Canary and have WebMIDI flag enabled.
