Hello,  
has anyone ever used a midi keyboard as input device for a flash application?

My planned Flash Project would have to **track the keyboard input of a midi as well as a normal keyboard** as the input devices will be exchanged during the progress through the application.

Does anyone know how to track midi keyboard input via ActionScript and **what features of a midi keyboard can be tracked?**

I’d be greatful if anyone could point me into the right direction,  
Regards,
