Hello folks!
I’m trying to find a way to pipe all midi inputs from my Organelle (ORAC) into a midi input listener on my network. can the midiout module do this task?
If not, as a pd newb I’d love to take on this task and build my first module (I’d welcome hints/tips/tricks 
)
Ok, my current solution for this: wrote a slim python server that PD is able to connect to via [netsend]. the loadbang establishes the connection to my server, then the notein hooks ensure that any note press or release triggers a message that goes to [netsend].
its not “real” midi, its just 2 integers; note and velocity. but I can do my parsing and for my current needs this is enough
initially i had looked into hooking the organelle into my rtp midi network that i put up via my mac book. but this path proved to be frictious; bunch of software packages need to be installed, and while trying i messed up my ALSA libraries, had to reformat the SD card and whatnot. currently i wont go this route.
anyhoo, i’ll upload my results once i have a working and clean solution. the ultimate goal is to trigger mqtt messages thru this setup, and light up my IKEA smart lights
What are the smart lights? you can control them with mqtt messages over WiFi? sounds like it could be fun for creating personal light show. I was trying to do this with a KAUF smart RGB lightbulb, but was not reliable.
>What are the smart lights?
set of IKEA Kajplats and Tradfris. They speak zigbee and my home assistant gateway handles the mqtt network.
I got to the point where I can send data from the Organelle to my Python server, and I can automate little animations via mqtt messaging. all i gotta do now is link these two

ah, how so?
