What is the current status of sysex support on Mac OS X?

When I try to create "sysexin", I get the message "sysexin: works under Linux only".

(The same for "midiin")

However it looks like it is supported in the code ( pmmacosxcm.c ).

What about sysex out? Has the status changed from connecting message boxes to "midiout" (see http://puredata.hurleur.com/sujet-417-sysex)

I think the only news to report on this is no news.. sorry. Maybe banging this thread will set some
wheels in motion.

*bang*

Got stuck trying to use the input of a Digitech gnx4 midi foot controller. All midi messages it sends are sysex, and i'm on Win XP.

I can see the sysex data coming in via usb in midi-ox, but i can't get it into puredata, since sysex is not supported yet for xp.

The hid object doesn't work either, its not in the Pd version 0.40.3-extended i've got here. Are there any versions where i could find it or separate downloads of this, so i can read usb input on win xp? Maybe that way i can get the foot controller to work.

i thought midi-ox had some sysex-to-regular-midi remapping functionality? maybe via scripting interface? but it's been years since i've used it...

@jdemtron

try [midiin], Pd says not supported on windows but it works anyways.
Just tested it with sysx-data from midi-ox and it seems ok!

peace
