Supercollider: Support for 14 bits MIDI in MIDIDef Class (Modality toolkit feature merge)

[ghost]

Hi

On my standing point, we should take advantage of the fact that @sensestage and the overall Modality toolkit team took the effort of implementing 14 bit MIDI in Modality Toolkit and implement it in Supercollider MidiDef Class. @sensestage @miguel-negrao @woutersnoei @scztt @snappizz @brianlheim what do you think? i think this can be a main advantage for supercollider. please follow issue https://github.com/ModalityTeam/Modality-toolkit/pull/295 and please do draw your comments

Initially I looked at how to implement it in MIDIFunc et all, but I couldn't quite wrap my head around how to go about it in that framework.

well, hopefully we will all together sort that out

The feature was implemented in modality about 4 days ago and neither sufficiently nor extensively tested. Though I (as part of the Modality Team) appreciate your enthusiasm, I also think that we should take time with such steps.
That aside, the implementation requires a specific setup within MIDIresponders (or equivalent) to work and hence cannot "just" be merged into vanilla SC.

Whoever is eager to try is of course invited to install the Modality Quark or, to actually test this feature (that is currently not in master), clone the respective tree mentioned in https://github.com/ModalityTeam/Modality-toolkit/pull/295.

I therefore close this issue. (Which leaves it open for further discussion and is also recorded in the Issue tracker, so we can get back to it later :) ).

@tiagmoraismorgado , IMHO your excessive use of boldface does not necessarily make your contributions to github more readable. In fact, they look quite bloated to my eyes and I find it quite exhausting to read. This might be personal taste, however, it seems that others agree with me (since they do not write in boldface all the time :) )

@tiagmoraismorgado more importantly than boldface, please never, ever, ever tag large numbers of people in comments. this sends out annoying email notifications to people who may not be interested.
