MIDI + Haskell = Computer Music, I'm already excited to see results, make sure you put stuff on hackage! /Joe On Oct 14, 2009, at 4:58 PM, Michael Mossey wrote:
Hi Philippa,
I think you have the right idea, and I want to try that too, but right now I'm using a kind of scattershot approach to try and learn everything I can, both about MIDI and Haskell in general. Since nothing is currently working, getting anything to work would be a learning experience.
Thanks, Mike

I can't find a "sleep" function in Haskell. This relates to my wish to use PortMidi and control the timing of actions. Maybe there is another way to do this sort of thing in Haskell. Can anyone help, either with PortMidi or just a general explanation of how IO operations could be placed at certain points in time?
Y'know, I can't think of a single language where I'd consider using the sleep function to time MIDI output. It's normally done with buffered I/O. I don't know PortMidi, though.
