I'm trying to open a midi port to receive incoming midi commands and am completely stuck (after a week of trying everything I can think of). I've confirmed that the MIDIPlugin is loaded. I've tried on both Windows XP and MacOS. The only port I have available is this:
MIDI Ports: 0: QuickTime MIDI (out)
Everything I have tried to create a new one has failed in the midi open primitive.
I suspect I'm just being dumb and there is an obvious incantation (hope so anyway).
Thanks so much for any advice you can provide.
