Midi event processor???

2006-05-03 by Boris Franck

Hello,
Does anyone knows of a simple realtime midi event processor for the Atari st? By simple i dont particularly mean easy, i just want to point the difference with sequencing or algorythmic functions (that i don't need).
In my dreams, i imagine something like the "Midi Event Processor" hardware from Midi Solutions, with maybe more flexibility: you should be able to define several "event translations" functions like changing a particular CC to a defined Sysex, or Note to Program Changes, or Sysex to anything other... It should also be able to calculate events with Increment/decrement functions (eg, it sends a program change incremented by one each time i push the same button on my controller), and also define maximum and minimum values in In & Out. Plus some mathematic functions...
The best would be a software like "Building Blocks" for PC (its a modular environment -looks a bit like Audiomulch or Reaktor- that only processes Midi information), but for the Atari. And mor stable, as BB isn't...
I already asked this question here some times ago, was redirected to huge lists of software, but wasn't lucky enough to find something close to my expectations... Maybe such a software doesnt exist for the ST?
Well, i want it so much that i should be able to try to program it myself, though i only have very poor knowledge in programming... Does anyone more experimented could tell me if it's only possible, if it's hard, what programming langage i should use, and where i should look for needed tools and documentation? Basically, it should just analyse incoming midi strings and datas & replace the strings by an (user definable) different string and process the datas with several functions (incr/decr, +, -, /, *, ...)
Of course, if an already existing soft does the job (even if it has other functions i don't need), i would be happy to bypass the programming learning ;)
Any idea?
