Add support for Web MIDI?

Hi Livid/Peter!

Would it be possible to add/port this so it uses Web MIDI instead of an NPAPI plugin?
This is especially relevant since pretty much all browsers have dropped NPAPI support.

[edit] Or maybe the JavaScript based replacement from jazz? http://jazz-soft.net/doc/JZZ/index.html which should also work on Firefox.

it's possible. All the midi is handled in js/midiio.js . Are you volunteering to help? I looked at this a bit ago. It's not trivial, but possible.

I can always give it a try, though JavaScript is not a language I have a lot of experience with.
What would you prefer? Web MIDI or JZZ.js?

Web MIDI!

That's a clear answer ;)
I'll have a look at it this weekend, will let you know here if I think it's doable for me.
