ugh...
Okay, getting a bit deeper into this, I realize I'm still "in the woods", so to speak. I'm going to have to hook up my NSTableView to set the *selected* port and channel for the MIDIInstruments, which means it's pretty much going to have to be loaded in the nib after all (since the MIDIInstrument has to respond to the selection made in the table). So, if I do that, and make the connections to Central_MIDI_Controller, as recommended, will the NSArrayController be able to add new instances of MIDIInstrument (and new rows to my table), which also have these connections? As I mentioned, I need an arbitrary number of MIDIInstruments.
Kind of confused about this...
thanks in advance.
