Web MIDI Sysex and Browser Permissions




Tried to upload some Web MIDI examples to my pwdm.dk, only to have a problem sending Sysex messages. And as all the functionality in the A3000 Remote is Sysex, this was very important to fix.



So after a half a day searching I found the solution. Sysex access is only allowed if the hosting website has a SSL certificate.
So rather than pay the fee to upgrade my account, I decided to try uploading the site to Github.
Will post as soon as I get it working.

  1. I did a lot of digging around about sysex too. It turns out that sysex works over https AND localhost. Very sparse documentation about web Midi sysex tho. I'm struggling to do anything useful with the API docs. Need some examples
