[Jsynthlib-devel] "Generic Device"

[Joe E. <jo...@em...>]

At the location I like to work on JSL drivers, I don't have access to 
the actual midi devices. So, it would be helpful if I could capture a 
sysex dump into JSL and then take my laptop somewhere else to work on 
the driver for it. This would also help when trying to reverse-engineer 
a sysex dump that you don't have a spec for.

I'd think that Generic Device is the driver to use for this, but I'm 
having trouble.

First, it seems that there's always a mandatory Generic Device in my 
synthdrivers list, but it's not available in the drop-down box when I 
try to "Get" a patch. If I add *another* Generic Device in my 
synthdriver list, the second one *does* show up in the "Get" drop-down box.

However, once I select Generic Device in the "Get" dialog box, I get an 
exception because patchNumbers is null.

Amy I trying to use Generic Device contrary to how it was intended? Or 
has it fallen into disrepair?
