Having said that there's no reason why we couldn't scan on all ports in parallel. Maybe there would be some situation where another app could be sending/receiving sysex so maybe we would want to exclude some ports. Maybe we should have an interface like midi-ox where we can multiple select all the ports we want to use franie |
