Possible To Add JUCE MidiKeyboard Component to use with Piano Roll

[titus-shoats]

Hello I would like to know if someone can point me in the right direction on adding JUCE MidiKeyboard Component to use with Helio's Piano Roll? I know its possible. I've built Helio from source, and from looking through the code I'm assuming I would need to use Helio's "Synthesizer" class in DefaultSynth.cpp to route all midi through the juce midi keyboard component. But I'm not to sure how I would then add JUCE MidiKeyboardComponent . Im not sure which of Helio's GUI components I would need to also modify to add the juce midi keyboard component to.

Would anyone be able to help me with this?

Thanks so much

You can take a look at how JUCE's AudioPluginHost example works with MidiKeyboardComponent: to send notes which are clicked on in the keyboard to instrument(s) of your choice, you maintain a MidiKeyboardState object, and register a specific MidiMessageCollector as it's listener. The list of all instruments is available in Helio's AudioCore class, and the access to instrument's message collector would look like instrument->getProcessorPlayer().getMidiMessageCollector(). Hope it helps.

I guess it would be somewhere around SequencerLayout class or one of its children, like piano roll, but it totally depends on what you want to do.
