MIDI support for Android seems to be missing

[Micrologus]

I'm trying to use Terra to play MIDI notes in an Android application.

The main MIDI unit (TERRA_MIDI.pas) uses TERRA_MIDI_IO.pas to send the notes, but TERRA_MIDI_IO.pas only seems to exist for Windows and Mac.

Is there any chance to get MIDI support for Android too?

Thanks!!

Hi, this engine is already 7 years old, back then Android did not have a standard way to process MIDI messages so that's why there was no Android support. Now the situation might have changed, however I no longer work on this engine. I recommend that you first search around if there is an alternative to use MIDI + Pascal + Android somehow.

If you don't find anything useful, you could look at porting this library from C to Pascal:
https://github.com/schellingb/TinySoundFont

It implements a full sounfont synth plus MIDI playback in just 2 files. If you want to go this route and can't do the port yourself, I could do it myself but that would be a paid job that would have to be negotiated. I've done several similar works for this engine, like porting the TTF loader and OGG decoders from C to Pascal.

Dear Sergio, Thank you very much for your fast reply. I will take a look at this material and I'll let you know if that seems a promising way to proceed/ All the best :) Marco

As alternative you can use http://www.un4seen.com/ libbass for non comercial projects.

Thank you for the tip! I'm looking into it right now. Best regards.
