processing_read_midi
Processing
Simple example that shows how to read MIDI from a file and how to send via OSC some of the attributes of each note while the file is being played.
It uses the sequence object from the javax.sound.midi package, and the oscp5 processing library.
OSC messages are sent on localhost using UDP as transport.
Original creedits for the code go to Hamoid, who wrote this tiny wrapper class to facilitate dealing with MIDI.
You also can run it in background via the processing-java binary.
processing-java --sketch=/full/path/to/processing_read_midi --run
You can also export the .pde sketch to an app if you want:
processing-java --sketch=/full/path/to/processing_read_midi --output=/where/you/like --export
node_receive_osc
NodeJS
This example shows how to receive OSC messages in NodeJS using the osc nodejs package.
node_bridge_osc
NodeJS Threejs
This slightly more complex example shows how to forward OSC messages from NodeJS to the browser using WebSockets using the osc and ws packages.
In this way you can have your browser side library (like p5js or threejs) creating graphics in the browser but reacting to inputs that could come from any application/framework that supports sending OSC messages via UDP (which means a lot of apps like VezΓ©r or Ableton Live, etc.. or creative coding frameworks like Processing or Openframeworks).
