[sc-users] NoteOnResponder

[Robert van Heumen <robert@xxxxxxxx>]

hi,

i'm working on creating a system with midi responders, but i can't  
seem to get it going.

i'm testing it using the internal IAC bus (sending midi from  
keystrokes generated in another program).

this works:
MIDIIn.noteOn =
	{
	arg src, chan, num, vel;
	[chan,num,vel].postln;		
	};

but this doesn't:
NoteOnResponder({ |src, chan, num, vel| [src, chan, num,  
vel].postln }, nil, nil, nil, nil, true);

what am i missing here?

basically, what i want to do is being able to respond to certain midi  
messages and update textfields or other screen elements. (when i gave  
up temporarily on the NoteOnResponder i tried it with the midiin, but  
there i can't seem to be allowed to set values on textfields from  
within the MIDIIn...).

thanks!
robert
