BTW if we really need to be able to generate, process and play MIDI tracks in real time in the browser, a good approach might be to add a MIDI track type to MediaStreams. Then with very little extra API surface we could extend getUserMedia to support capturing MIDI tracks, extract recorded MIDI tracks using mediaElement.captureStream, extend the Worker onprocessmedia event to support reading and writing MIDI data, synthesize and play back by feeding the MediaStream into an <audio> element, record MIDI using StreamRecorder, etc. This approach would let you keep MIDI tracks in sync with other video and audio sources (including other kinds of audio processing). (I'm assuming MIDI tracks can be represented as a sequence of timestamped events; I don't know much about MIDI!) Rob -- "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us." [1 John 1:8-10]
