This is a polymer component, and this is a wrapping Web MIDI API.
- What is MIDI? -> MIDI@wikipedia
- What is Web MIDI API? -> Web MIDI API@W3C
MIDI is well defined protocol. But to use the protocol you must learn 7bit code, such as NoteOn: 9nH, NoteOff: 8nH. With using this component you do NOT have to learn those 7bit code. And also, you do NOT have to know about method in Web MIDI API. What you need to understand to use this component are HTML and a few JavaScript, which is eventlistener. Using this component allow you a quick and an easy MIDI application development.
- NoteOn
- NoteOff
- Program Change
- PitchBend
- Sustain
- Modulation
- AllSoundOff
- ResetAllController
- AllNoteOff
Google Chrome to use this component.
$ git clone https://github.com/ryoyakawai/x-webmidi.git;
- import xwebmidi.js
- create an instance of xwebmidi.js
- create div element and tell xwebmidi.js that where to add pull down menu input/output device to provide.
- add eventlistener to handle for MIDI input, and send MIDI message against MIDI OUTPUT

Second parameter of initInput()/initOutput() is NOT REQURED
