There are two scripts, midiin_server.py and midiout_server.py. Each is run in a shell. Each requires the shell to be in the virtualenv.
By default running python midiout_server.py starts an OSC server on
localhost:8000
To test midi output connectivity, run python test_client.py in a different shell and
observe the server output.
- RTMidi C++ lib looks like the way to go.
- There are python bindings with many good examples.
- It python-osc only works with python 3, despite installing in a python 2.7 virtualenv.
