Well, I am currently implementing a plugin architecture to Shelljam with which you can map as many MIDI events that C++ can generate to as many computer hardware events libgii can read... right along with a little XML storage for the pre-sets. Do you think such a thing could possibly get you off? :) Actually this is the type of coding I would like to delegate but right now there's nobody else around xept me :) Maybe someone would at least code a UI for me I'd already be happy...
