Hi! Funny: a similar question from yesterday but for Linux:

> Hi everybody, I’ve created a MIDI control GUI in Processing that I would have liked to link to Reaper to control some automation by sending MIDI CCs (using the [MidiBus](http://www.smallbutdigital.com/projects/themidibus/) library). Unfortunately, different from what I expected, I’m unable to exchange MIDI messages between the GUI and the DAW. I’m using Jack and a2jmidid. This is a screenshot of the following processing code line myBus = new MidiBus(this, 1, 2);: [processing\_midi] This is a screenshot of my current audio midi setup:

I link it here in case some of the tips are useful on Mac too.
