Just as a website asks for permission to access your computer's camera or microphone, BoxCast may ask for MIDI device permissions from your browser if you plan on using some sort of MIDI device, like Behringer's X-Touch control surface.

The table below outlines which browsers support WebMIDI. Please note that Safari is not supported.

Brave MIDI Permissions

By default, Brave sets the permission to “until I close this site” but you will need to click Allow every time you quit the browser and then re-open it. You may use the Remember my decision dropdown and change your preference for how Brave behaves.
