rlang Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 I am trying to use the FTDI232BM USB to serial chip in a MIDI application.The FT232BM chip comes with a WDM usb driver and API (FT_Write(lngHandle,strWriteBuffer, LENGTH_MESSAGE, lngBytesWritten))that I can use to send mididata to the chip and it will convert to MIDI serial output. I would like touse the windows MIDI API functions like IRET =midiOutShortMsg(MIDI_OUT_HANDLE, MIDIMSG).My question is what do I have to do to have the FT232BM chip recognized as aMIDI device? Why do I want it to be recognized as a MIDI device when I canalready send midi data to it? So that CAKEWALK and other musicalapplications can use it directly. Any guidance is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.Bob Lang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
