QmidiCtl - A MIDI Remote Controller via UDP/IP Multicast -------------------------------------------------------- QmidiCtl is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI data over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast [3] and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI for Windows [4]. QmidiCt [1] has been primarily designed for the Maemo [5] enabled handheld devices, namely the Nokia N900 [6] and also being promoted to the Maemo Package [7] repositories. Nevertheless, QmidiCtl [1] may still be found effective as a regular desktop and, ultimately, as an Android application as well [8]. Website: https://qmidictl.sourceforge.io https://qmidictl.sourceforge.net Project page: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qmidictl Weblog: https://www.rncbc.org QmidiNet is free, open-source software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [2] version 2 or later. Requirements ------------ The software requirements for build and runtime are listed as follows: Mandatory: [1] Qt framework, C++ class library and tools for cross-platform application and UI development https://qt.io/ Installation ------------ Unpack the tarball and in the extracted source directory: cmake [-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<prefix>] -B build cmake --build build [--parallel <Njobs>] and optionally, as root: [sudo] cmake --install build Note that the default installation path (<prefix>) is /usr/local . Configuration ------------- QmidiCtl holds its settings and configuration state per user, in a file located as $HOME/.config/rncbc.org/QmidiCtl.conf . Normally, there's no need to edit this file, as it is recreated and rewritten everytime qmidictl is run. Bugs ---- Probably plenty still, QjackCtl maybe considered on beta stage already. Support ------- QmidiCtl is open source free software. For bug reports, feature requests, discussion forums, mailling lists, or any other matter related to the development of this piece of software, please use the Sourceforge project page (https://sourceforge.net/projects/qmidictl).
