> The midi standard is to use only 4 bits. What you are suggesting is just not possible using the midi protocol. Sorry to be the bringer of sad news :) Well sure, I get that. So I guess what I was hoping to do was to extend the protocol. And since this would be a software only solution with no hardware involved (ie, not connecting to any MIDI devices) then it might be possible to create this extended MIDI format in the software. Or is there some other approach/solution using different software/protocols that anyone knows about?
