jupyter-widgets / midicontrols Goto Github PK

Perhaps it's best to use the simple sliders/buttons from the game controller?

I think it makes sense to make sure there is only a single object instance actually talking to each midi device, perhaps keeping a cache of objects tied to midi device numbers, and a function to get the existing instance for a particular midi device.

I was asked how the midi communication happens. This talks to a midi controller through the browser using the web midi standard with the aid of the webmidi javascript library. Currently only Chrome implements the web midi standard, so this only works in Chrome for now.

Note that we are not using python to communicate over midi. The midi communication happens in the browser.

It looks like the midi fighter controllers are excellent controllers as well, and the 3d ones offer some very interesting interaction paradigms:

It would be great to support these.

This is such a cool project! I tried installing:

• jupyterlab 3.0.16
• ipymidicontrols 0.1.3
• ipywidgets 7.6.3
• jupyterlab_widgets 1.0.0
• @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager 3.0.0

I am using macOS 11.3.1 and Chrome 90.0.4430.212 (Official Build) (x86_64)

I tried instantiating the mini UI for ipymidicontrols using a brand new Behringer X-Touch Mini and this is what happened. Do you have any pointers?
