This is really interesting. Windows device handling can be tricky sometimes, especially when things work at one layer but fail silently at another. The channel detection approach is clever.

For what it is worth, Microsoft is in the process of rolling out Windows Midi Services for Windows 11.
Wow very cool project!
I will test it out later today - i have always been using cabled connection for my midi keyboard

> Windows only natively exposes BLE-MIDI through the WinRT API, which almost no DAW polls.
I haven’t used Windows for ages. Does this mean that almost every Windows user with any Bluetooth MIDI keyboard is unable to use it out of the box with their DAW without installing additional third-party software?
Does it apply even to latest version of the very widely used DAWs like Ableton, Pro Tools, FL Studio, Reason, and Reaper?

Tried with the Yamaha Seqtrak on Windows 10, didn't work.

Thanks! Totally understand – the tool’s core audience is definitely Windows users facing MIDI driver headaches. Appreciate you stopping by though!

Alas I don’t use windows but if I did I would certainly check this out.
