Motivation

  • Provide a short, practical guide to create a real virtual MIDI port so TheMidiBus can open it without throwing a NullPointerException.
  • Help users avoid the common "Real Time Sequencer" trap by documenting explicit setup steps for macOS and Windows.

Description

  • Add a new doc docs/midi-loopback-setup.md with step-by-step instructions for enabling the IAC Bus on macOS and creating a port in loopMIDI on Windows.
  • Link the new guide from the README.md under the "MIDI device gotchas" section for quick access.
  • Keep the language concise and practical so users can quickly create a usable loopback port.

Testing

  • This is a documentation-only change and no automated tests were run.
  • Changes were committed to the repository and the new file docs/midi-loopback-setup.md was added successfully.
