Hey I am using the webmidi js library to play midi music on click on the browser. https://www.npmjs.com/package/webmidi
I am using a very basic example from the library. Even though it seems that the connection works I can not here anything.
WebMidi.enable(function (err) {
if (err) {
console.log("WebMidi could not be enabled.", err);
} else {
console.log("WebMidi enabled!");
var output =WebMidi.outputs[0];
console.log(output);
output.playNote(["C3", "D#3", "G3"]);
}
});
I am running it on chrome and ubuntu 14.04.
The console.log(output) returns:
Output_midiOutput: MIDIOutput

Midi Through Port-0 is a dummy sequencer that doesn't make any sound. I assume you are running on a Linux machine - try the command aconnect -o to see a list of available MIDI outputs, find the device you are trying to play the MIDI notes through and select that one as your output.
