Hi! I am trying to develop an application that uses Core MIDI to instantiate a connection to my Macbook via Audio MIDI Setup. I have created a client within my application and that shows up under the directory in Audio MIDI Setup on my macbook. Now I am stuck trying to figure out how to send MIDI from my app to my computer. I have tried MIDISend, and using CreateOutputPort. Both are successful in the sense that I don't get zeros when printing to the console, but nothing changes in the DAW when I set the controller and number values to the exact numbers I created in my app.
I have a feeling that I am missing a network connection within my app somehow so that it recognizes my computer as a source, but I have not yet found an effective method to do this.
Any information as to how I get midi to send from my app to my DAW on my computer would be greatly appreciated!
I am trying to make this for my final project in one of my coding classes.
Thanks!
