tidal-midi won't install on mac

[amillionspiders]

Fails while trying to install alsa-core-0.5.0.1, which I've read elsewhere is Linux only. Any possible workarounds?

Yes you need to use @lennart's development version for mac support and other stuff. Hopefully it'll get merged back soon.

Info here for how to install it:

@yaxu it seems we should be merging my branch into master some time soon, requests for mac/windows support start to come up more often.

Are there any blockers left to fix?

[yaxu]

No blockers I do't think, just edge cases, which are better than being single platform. I'd be surprised if anyone is using the current master branch, anyway.

[yaxu]

There is my PR though lennart/tidal-midi#4

[yaxu]

Ah you've merged it, thanks!

One other thing @lennart, how about renaming 'keyproxy' to 'midiproxy'? The former is a reference to volca keys.

[lennart]

yes, I'd love to do that. I guess we should not rush it and use the time to ask on the lurk list for any suggestions for refactorings (naming things) before we merge to master and update the cabal package.

Actually one could eventually merge the documentation from tidal-midi's README into the main docs on tidal.lurk.org

I guess I'll start with renaming keyproxy to midiproxy!

One thing I noticed is that the Volca Bass "cutoff" parameter conflicts
with Tidal's. I was going to change it to "kcutoff" to match the Volca
Keys. No strong feelings about it being corrected before merging to master
though.
