Managing MIDI Recording
After you open a MIDI device, you can begin recording MIDI data. Windows
provides the following functions for managing MIDI recording:
midiInAddBuffer
| Sends a buffer to the device driver so it can be filled with recorded
system-exclusive MIDI data.
| midiInReset
| Stops MIDI recording and marks all pending buffers as done.
| midiInStart
| Starts MIDI recording and resets the time stamp to zero.
| midiInStop
| Stops MIDI recording.
|
To send buffers to the device driver for recording system-exclusive messages,
use midiInAddBuffer. The application is notified as the buffers are filled with system-exclusive
recorded data. For more information about the notification techniques, see Managing MIDI Data Blocks.
The midiInStart function begins the recording process. When recording system-exclusive
messages, send at least one buffer to the driver before starting recording. To stop
recording, use midiInStop. Before closing the device by using the midiInClose function, mark any pending data blocks as being done by calling midiInReset.
Applications that require time-stamped data use a callback function to receive
MIDI data. If your timing requirements are not strict, you can use a window or
thread callback. However, you cannot use an event callback to receive MIDI
data.
To record system-exclusive messages with applications that do not use stream
buffers, you must supply the device driver with buffers. These buffers are
specified by using a MIDIHDR structure.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
