Hi Dinaz,
I’m not sure what’s happening on your system I’m afraid. When you run the FlashMidiServer app, that panel should pop up, letting you control the various options. It’s written in Processing, which i based on Java, so you could see if your Java is up to date at this link –

When you click export, the app copies the current pattern to your system clipboard, so you should be able to paste it into an email or whatever you want just by pressing Control+V / edit + paste.

Hope you get it working.

Hi, I am having trouble with the Flash Midi Server. I downloaded it and it says it is connected, but I only hear piano notes, and it doesn’t have the nifty control panel as shown in the video. Is any other software used in the video? If so, where can I download it and how can I hook it up to the Cellular Automidi? In addition, I am not able to export anything. I am not sure where the clipboard is. What if there is a sequence I would like to send to someone to use in a track? Can any1 please help? Please bear with me; I am not tech savvy…. :((((

Thanks Adrian,
The dynamic audio code in this app doesn’t use any libraries yet, it’s just knocked together from the ASDocs and a few helpful blog posts – although Tonfall is something I’m looking into – anything by Andre is bound to be stunning.

I also like the stuff Jeremy (makemachine) is doing here-

Hi Lawrie,

What dose your code look like to generate the sounds in AS3 dynamically? Are you just using a base AS3 classes or a library such as Tonfall (http://blog.andre-michelle.com/2010/tonfall-open-source-audio-framework/)?

Keep up the great work.
