  For what it is worth, Microsoft is in the process of rolling out Windows Midi Services for Windows 11.https://microsoft.github.io/MIDI/

  > 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?

  Wow. That looks really painful. I have multiple pianos, always used cable because I wanted it to work without problems in Linux and Mac. Also I can't stand delays.I have created 20 utils or so with the help of Claude, in order to practice multiple things like reading sheet music, or rhythms, or different scales. I never expected it to be that useful as my new Yamaha was bought before Claude existed, and having a cable that just works is so great.I have spent way less effort doing all my utils than this man into just connecting its machine.Before using it with Claude I used them a lot with Synthesia and GarageBand, but with Claude is like having a personal trainer.

  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.

  Did you try https://github.com/celtera/libremidi ? It should poll BLE devices

  All of my synths are hooked up via USB or Focusrite interface (wired MIDI) because that makes sense for my setup, but this could be cool for more portable setups. The big question is what does your average latency look like?

  I've been looking at building a "Linux MIDI gadget" to send signals from my Casio DG20 to my PC over BLE -- this is just what i need for the PC end

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

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