Re: [linux-audio-dev] Basic MIDI question

Hmmm, does this really work? I don't think so.

Example:

   1. status: note on (-> thisByte -> runningStatus)
   2. data: key (-> thisByte, ignored)
   3. data: vel (-> thisByte, checked against 0, checked againt 0x80)
   4. status: note off (read as key !!!)
   5. data: key (read as vel, checked against 0x80 !!!)
   6. data: vel (read as key !!!)
   7. status: note on (read as vel, checked against 0x80 !!!)

The Problem is, that the second data byte is used for the running status
byte test.

Yours,

Jacob
