Hey, What about ASCII input? Something like being able to use the PC keyboard as a midi controller in the exported EXE and DLL files. Something like this

Most hosts have this, SM EXEs allow this already IIRC, & there are freeware EXEs that make a typing keyboard into a MIDI keyboard, etc. & I think there is a SM module out there already 🙂

hey, Really ? Do you know if there is an OSM of something like this ? I would be really interested to see how it has been done. And yeah I checked the net but only found some uninteresting stuff (for me) except expensive ones - check my other threads about that [old link] So if it has been done in S.M I'd be really interested in studying it and then I would try to make a free one. All the ones I checked need to have a pre-existing midi out but don't create a real midi port... Or am I wrong? that would be interesting (for me again...and probably for others too!!) to be able to load it in EXE and then to get it as a real midi input in the DAW...

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
