In the spec, this is currently unclear in 5.1.1: "success: Let access be the MIDIAccess object for which access has been granted." Which kinda reads like the spec is assuming requestMIDIAccess() will not be called repeatedly. 80596 1 cwilso 2012-12-26 17:21:00 +0000 Happy to make this explicit. I will likely make it say it is not required to be a singleton, unless anyone objects. It's not that calling requestMIDIAccess() repeatedly is broken, it's that it might be a bad idea - as it may re-prompt the user for access, if the system is prompting. 80615 2 cwilso 2012-12-26 18:51:36 +0000 https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/commit/d9887def0b23e1c90014d10a297c920b84648a2b 81576 3 olivier.thereaux 2013-01-18 15:51:00 +0000 Batch-closing RESOLVED MIDI issues.
