Hello All,
I'm working on MIDI set-up customization for my music app. I have a main controller object, called Central_MIDI_Controller, that uses the VVMIDI framework to detect MIDI ports, and handle low-level MIDI stuff. I have an object called MIDIInstrument, which is a simple wrapper-type object, intended to bundle together a name string with a MIDI port, channel, and some program change "presets", defined by the user.
I've put the Central_MIDI_Controller in my MainMenu.nib, and it's settings are stored in the UserDefaults. I put it there because I want it to persist across different documents. What I'm wondering about is how to get the list of available MIDI ports to the MIDIInstrument objects, which will be created dynamically, as the user creates customized instances of MIDIInstrument.
What I'm not understanding is how to allow newly created MIDIInstrument objects to read the available/enabled ports from Central_MIDI_Controller. I know this is probably really simple, but how do I grab a reference to a controller object loaded only in the MainMenu.nib file?
thanks in advance,
J.
