From Fred: ========== So, I tested this with 3 machines: MacBook Pro High Sierra (10.13), MacBook Pro Catalina (10.15), and Dell laptop Windows 10 Education. I feel pretty good that it's good to go. Regarding Rafael Hernandez's videos, here are my suggestions: - tell everyone to skip: 23-26 - 5 & 12, and others using 'noteout': - macOS Catalina (10.15): use sforzando (see below) - SimpleSynth still works for anything below that ( notahat.com/simplesynth ) - Windows 10, under the MIDI setup (Media --> MIDI settings...) choose 'Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth' This is the basic set of standard MIDI instruments using samples from ancient times ( soundprogramming.net/file-formats/general-midi-instrument-list ) or people can download sforzando, some sound files, and also a virtual MIDI application ( loopMIDI from Tobias Erichsen ) - 7, 10 need ReacTIVision and TUIO tools - 10 skip TUIO example - or download TUIO framework & ReacTIVision TUIO Simulator Note: I added a library (markex) to make sure that the other random number (randomF and tripleRandtools in Tutorial 8 work. ********************************* get sforzando and sound banks ********************************* help getting started: http://www.donyaquick.com/working-with-midi-on-mac-os-x http://donyaquick.com/midi-on-windows/ downloads: https://www.plogue.com/products/sforzando.html https://www.plogue.com/downloads.html#sforzando more sounds: https://www.plogue.com/products/sforzando-banks.html Windows users will also need a virtual MIDI application: www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html ************** ReacTIVision ************** ReacTIVision, TUIO & ReacTIVision Simulator https://sourceforge.net/projects/reactivision/files/TUIO%201.0/TUIO-Clients%201.4/TUIO_Simulator-1.4.zip https://sourceforge.net/projects/reactivision/
