Create virtual MIDI output device from plugin #7

Open nikreiman opened 12 years ago

nikreiman commented 12 years ago

Rather than using a standalone app, it is probably possible to create the virtual MIDI output within the plugin itself.

Is this possible in Windows?

fromopics commented 12 years ago

If not from the vst itself, just install something like loopMIDI http://www.tobias-erichsen.de/loopMIDI.html and send it out using the virtual device from there.

@vinniefalco it might be possible via midi-ox, which can be distributed as a DLL alongside the plugin. I will try to get it working first in OSX and then in Windows.

I've made an experimental branch for this feature, and although it does work, the plugin crashes when removed from the host (or when the host closes). Not sure why this is, perhaps it's a big in Juce. If this cannot be resolved then this feature mist be scrapped and a standalone app must be used instead
