Restrictions

This application only works with Chrome Browsers. If browser will ask you for permissions, to take over midi, give it to him! There is no security hole there, so do not care about that. If you make use of the electron-installer, this will be no issue for you. Additionaly, you have to have some midi-drivers preconfigured.

Thanks

Thanks to the people, who made react, redux, material-ui and big thanks to my friend Henrik Wenz (https://github.com/HaNdTriX), who made electron functionality available. And nice big greetz to my friend Alec Troniq (http://alec-troniq.com/), who gave me the right hints, to build up all this stuff, using this for his live performances.
