MIDI Output

The MIDI Output node sends generated notes to external MIDI hardware or other applications. It acts as a terminal MIDI sink on the canvas.

SETUP

1. 1Add a MIDI Output node via Modules > MIDI Output
2. 2Connect any MIDI-producing node (Pattern, Generator, Transformer, etc.) to its input
3. 3Select a MIDI output device from the dropdown
4. 4Choose a MIDI channel (1-16)

The node shows an activity indicator when notes are being sent.

DEVICE SELECTION

The device dropdown lists all available MIDI output devices on your system. If you connect a new MIDI device while Noemi is running, use the refresh button to update the list.

HOST (DAW) OUTPUT

When Noemi runs as a plugin (AU/VST3/CLAP/LV2), the device dropdown adds a "Host (DAW)" entry at the top. Select it to send the generated MIDI back out through the plugin, into the host DAW. Route that MIDI to another track to drive your DAW's own instruments with Noemi's generative parts. This entry only appears in plugin builds; in the standalone app the dropdown lists hardware and virtual MIDI ports only.

NOTE TRACKING

The MIDI Output node tracks active pitches to ensure proper note-off messages are always sent, even if the source node is disconnected or deleted.
