Hi Chiel,
I am helping develop the next version of the app. Thanks your feedback about MIDI in.
My priority right now is getting MIDI out working, so that events generated by the Vine could trigger any synth (software or hardware) that takes MIDI, which I think would include the softsynths you mention.
Additionally we plan for the next release to work on a tablet, which allows the app the be controlled by touch directly, and gets away from the mouse clicking. It already works sort of like this on a laptop with a touch screen, e.g. the Microsoft Surface Pro.
Adding the ability to map Vine events to external MIDI controllers is a substantial task given the current state of the project, and it would take a lot of consideration to do properly, but there seems to be great interest in this feature. It is likely we'll add this functionality sometime in the future.
Warmly,
Mo
