I’m a coder and want to code/port a sequencer on a native QNX midi driver
(no port for the low level stuff)
Any help would be appreciated, let’s exchqnge ideas and start a sourceforge
QNX-MIDI support…
QNX probably could be a very good platform for MIDI, but there’s no support
for it right now. QSSL did not see much of a market for that, so their audio
architecture just omitted MIDI part. You will have to start with low-level
driver coding…

Ok basically what I’ll do is start with a simple parallel/serial driver for
interfaces like MIDIMAN parallel or motu
Then I’ll get inspiration from the linux driver to write the resource
manager, I’ve heard writing drivers in qnx is easy because they are run as
processes. So no need to reboot every 10 secs… I’ve received QNX NC with a
magazine, I don’t have gcc and developping tools, only the libs!
Is the NC iso available on the site ready to be used by developer cause my
cd is not.
I would like to have ph app builder and so on if I wanna write widgets for
the sequencers.
I’ll try to port MUSE sequencer on photon with a low-level resource manager
for a parallel 1 in 1 out interface
Gonna make a web page and maybe a sourceforge forum

The NC have everything in it for you to compile your own driver. Either the
magazine have a wrong image ( I doubt), or your installation is not went
well.
(NC install in 2 step, first the “BASIC” system, and during the first boot,
all the
“Development Tools” will be installed).

Another, marginally-related topic; I’m in the process of writing a DX-7
simulator that takes midi files and generates 16-bit stereo .wav files.
Contact me for details if you are interested in helping out…

Ok this is the first steps I’ll take to make my QNX MIDI dream, a reality.
Serial midi driver coding (MIDIMAN PC/S or midiator industrial midi
interface) The midi protocol is already serial and a serial interface would
be the easiest driver to code!
midi deamon aka io-midi. A server for midi in the same style of io-audio
that presents a unique interface for drivers and offers midi mixing and of
course driver init
