Re: AW: [Jsynthlib-devel] Some questions about BankDriver

[Rib R. <ri...@gm...>]

That could be a possibility.  I think what we really need though is a
way for drivers to start receiving messages as they come in.  For
example, some synths (including the motif for some things) use a 2-way
communication protocol to transfer data. I don't think this type of
thing is currently supported by JSynthLib.
