I'm not sure why you need midi 2.0 to achieve this? Recording midi on windows is totally trivial, and for this sort of application, only capturing the notes and relevant CCs (e.g. pedals) is all you need.



Yes, it's not really MIDI 2.0 related, but with the update they will also add multi-client support for MIDI 1.0, so I can record and still use the MIDI input as input to a virtual instrument.

See announcement here: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/windows-music-dev/windows-mid...


Theyre specifically looking to record all incoming MIDI streams, which isn't possible without preventing other applications from using those MIDI devices. Only one program can listen/send to a midi device at a time
