Settings View Source Midiex.VirtualMidiPort (Midiex v0.6.1)

A struct representing a virtual MIDI port.

Currently this is only used for :input ports. When a viritual output port is created a Midiex.OutConn struct is returned instead.

Note that viritual ports are only available on platforms that them (currently every platform but Windows).

The keys of the struct are as follows:

• direction which is an atom currently of value :input
• name which is a string containing the name of the port
• num the port number

example

Example

Virtual input port

# Create a virtual MIDI input by giving it a name. MIDIex will also assign it an input port number (`num`).
my_virtual_in = Midiex.create_virtual_input("My Virtual Input")

# This will return a VirtualMidiPort struct in the following format
# %Midiex.VirtualMidiPort{direction: :input, name: "My Virtual Input", num: 1}
