Re: mediactrl.Load always gives False
Thanks for the VLC suggestion, I hadn't thought of that. Another possibility is FluidSynth. As you say, both also require sourcing and configuring a suitable SoundFront file. I expect I'll go down one of those routes, though the loss of native MIDI support in wxWidgets on Macos would be a shame.
