Library overwrites `m.event` function

[zjb-s]

Currently, it seems like if you run _16n.init it blocks other midi input in the main script. Totally happy to work on this tomorrow if you want a hand.

There's a couple of workarounds I can think of.

my suspicion is that it does not come from _16n. lemme investigate.

yeah, _16n, doesn't override anything.

on the other hand, you may override waht _16n does if 16n is at first position in DEVICES > MIDI.
indeed you force input CC device to position 1 by not providing arguments to midi.connect (here).

one way would be to bind the event callback function for handling CCs to all devices that are not 16n.
alternatively, one could make the CC input midi device configurable w/ a param.

for use-case 1 i can do you a PR as i already ahve some code ready @ https://github.com/p3r7/sempra (relevant bit)

that patch looks good.
"one way would be to bind the event callback function for handling CCs to all devices that are not 16n."
how would you do that? I'm a bit fuzzy on how the midi library works - much more familiar with crow!

thanks so much for your help with sempra btw!

I actually wrote almost that exact same patch locally last night now that I think of it!
