There's already a sysexin so sysexout makes sense.<br>
<br>
I can help testing it on Os X.<br>

So far I've done a simple c program that outputs the sysex
correctly, so I would be able to patch.<br>
The thing is that if we keep midiout object we need to change it's
interface (because it would have to accept a list instead of a
float). So maybe better to create a new object sysexout?<br>
<br>
PS: On the other hand I need some help building/configuring, I
open another thread...<br>

Hi.<br>
I've been trying to use midiout but it does not work
when sending sysex<br>
because it sends 1 byte at a time.<br>
Chatting with matju on #irc where he showed me the
source code, I think<br>
the problem is that midiout uses ultimately
sys_alsa_putmidibyte to send<br>
<br>
snd_seq_ev_set_sysex(&ev,1,&data)<br>
<br>
one byte at a time<br>
<br>
So we thought about writing an external that uses
alsa-midi functions<br>
and he guided me the first steps.<br>
Now, the problem is that this external would need access
to structure<br>
midi_handle, and variables alsa_midioutfd and
alsa_nmidiout which are<br>
defined in s_midi_alsa.c (because creating and opening
ALSA ports is<br>
handled there). The functions provided by s_midi are not
good enough as<br>
I need to<br>
<br>
snd_seq_ev_set_sysex(&ev,
data_array_size,data_array)<br>
<br>
So my question is: is it possible to write such
external? or I need to<br>
patch the sources?<br>

IMHO this is a bug, so you should patch the source, then
submit the patch to the tracker. Also it seems to bug
differently on different OSs, only linux uses alsa. Pd's sysex
implementation didn't work properly on WIN32 either last time
I checked.<br>
