Especially for Mike Gogins:
Is it true that Chromebooks cannot handle the Csound for Android app using external MIDI controllers?
I can’t seem to get any of my Chromebooks to recognize my various controllers, but it may well be that MIDI control is not built into Csound for Android (including the latest).
Running a standard .csd with CsOption -M0, and MIDI plugged in, gives a MIDI device (-1) not found error. (Is some other MIDI device indication required?)
I’ve had the same result on our Samsung Chromebook Plus v2’s.

Hello,
with version 6.10 (it’s the latest version my ancient tablet can handle) I’ve used the web midi api to capture midi messages (html/js within CsHTML5 tags) and pass them to the csound code through channels or score events.

Thanks Brian and Mike for the valuable information.
Mike, if you see any possible “fix” for the lack of direct Chromebook MIDI support for Android Csound, do let me know. From the reports, I am not optimistic or holding my breath.
Again thanks.
