Haukcode.MidiDevice

Cross-platform USB MIDI device I/O for .NET — no native library dependencies.

Key Features

  • Enumerate, open, send, and receive on Windows, macOS, and Linux ARM64 (Raspberry Pi)
  • IObservable<MidiMessage> stream via System.Reactive
  • Strongly-typed message records: NoteOnMessage, ControlChangeMessage, SysExMessage, and more
  • Full MIDI byte stream parser — running status, SysEx framing, interleaved real-time messages
  • Pure managed C# with P/Invoke only — WinMM / CoreMIDI / ALSA rawmidi

Installation

dotnet add package Haukcode.MidiDevice

On Linux, libasound2 must be present (apt-get install libasound2).

Quick Start

// Enumerate
var inputs = MidiDeviceManager.GetInputDevices();

// Open and subscribe
using var device = MidiInputDevice.Open(inputs.First(d => d.Name.Contains("LPD8")));

device.Messages.Subscribe(msg =>
{
    if (msg is ControlChangeMessage cc)
        Console.WriteLine($"CC ch={cc.Channel} #{cc.ControlNumber} = {cc.Value}");
});

// Send
var outputs = MidiDeviceManager.GetOutputDevices();
using var output = MidiOutputDevice.Open(outputs.First());
output.Send(new NoteOnMessage(Channel: 0, NoteNumber: 36, Velocity: 127));
output.SendRaw([0xF0, 0x47, 0x7F, 0x30, 0xF7]); // SysEx

Platform Support
