MIDI-driven visuals are created by organizing notes, sequences, and outbound messages into ECS components within Irreden Engine. This allows you to build audio-reactive content and interactive music projects by routing MIDI data through a structured pipeline.

Lua scripts can control MIDI sequences through specific Lua bindings designed for ergonomic scripting. These interfaces allow you to instantiate sequences, respond to triggers, and manage MIDI ports alongside the underlying C++ ECS components.

Timed MIDI messages are sent to hardware by configuring lifecycle pipelines such as MIDI_SEQUENCE_OUT, MIDI_DELAY_PROCESS, and OUTPUT_MIDI_MESSAGE_OUT. These pipelines manage the routing and delayed processing of outbound messages from the ECS.

Modeling MIDI data requires C++ ECS components like C_MidiNote, C_MidiSequence, C_MidiMessage, C_MidiDevice, C_MidiChannel, and C_MidiDelay. These components structure the notes, sequences, and device channels for the visualization pipeline.

Physics-driven instruments can be built where physical contacts trigger MIDI notes and visuals react in real time. This is achieved by integrating the engine's physics system with the MIDI ECS components and outbound message pipelines.

MIDI visualization requires registering specific MIDI pipelines like INPUT_MIDI_MESSAGE_IN and MIDI_SEQUENCE_OUT within Irreden Engine. This pipeline setup ensures that input messages and sequence data properly drive the ECS components and visual outputs.
