[jmsl] Playing Through An External Midi Device

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

Oh I didn't realize you meant to play an external device from an 
Applet.  Neither MidiShare nor JavaMidi will do that for you as you'd 
need a plug-in for the web browser.

Does anyone know about JavaSound's MIDI support for external devices?

Thanks
Nick
