I'd like to make an app for making music on the road. I'd like it to have some sort of step/song editor and - most importantly - midi support. It has to load and SAVE midi files.

Anyone know what kind of things would be impossible/hard in Lua? Should I go with PSPSDK?

Thanks!

Have you checked out pspkick? Though it doesn't have midi support, it can allow you at least some kind of creative outlet.

Lua is turing complete, so of course it is possible, see http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?p=22836#22836 , but it is not very fast :-) Loading and saving MIDI files would be faster (because they are shorter) and it should be possible to write a MIDI player, but would be easier to integrate it as a Lua Player function and using just some existing C lib for it.
