MP (midi play) for Linux -- Release 0.2, February, 1993
|
|
|
|
Mp plays midi files on the fm part of the sound card and/or sends
|
|
midi commands to the card's external midi port. It plays multi-
|
|
track files and either uses the card's drum mode or its own
|
|
set of percussion voices (installed from file drums.sb).
|
|
|
|
The code for mp is mostly pasted together bits from the CMU CMT
|
|
programs by Roger Dannenberg, from Tim Thompson's Midifiles library,
|
|
and the code for playing fm is taken from "fmplay" by Hannu Savolainen.
|
|
|
|
Installation:
|
|
|
|
Check "DESTDIR" in the Makefile, and also the XSELECT and PSELECT
|
|
defines; then "make install". Use "setsb std.sb" to load my set of
|
|
128 voices for the sound card, if you want to use them, and use
|
|
"setdrums drums.sb" to load the drum voices for the sound card.
|
|
(The two libraries of patches can be edited with Glib.)
