MIDIPLAY V3.0 BETA 6 (12.4.98)
Copyright (C) Janne Syväniemi 1993-98
1. HELLO
Hello all of you out there somewhere!! Sorry for the very long wait. When
I first started to program MidiPlay, I had lots of time to do things. Now
I have regular job and I'm programming 8 hours a day. You see, the
programming is not the first thing on my mind when I come home :-(.
Anyway, here is the MidiPlay v3.0 beta 6. If you have time to test it,
please do so and report all strange bugs to me. Try to avoid asking any
new features, because I'll probably forget them before next time I have
time to think about such changes.
2. INSTALLATION
miditune.library (37.019) can be copied to the LIBS: directory. It is
compatible with MidiPlay version 2.65b.
There are now 2 version of GUI. Normal gadtools version and a MUI version.
Copy midigui.library, the one you want to test, to the same directory as
the MidiPlay Beta. If you want to change between these GUIs, remember to
call 'avail flush' command before starting MidiPlay with another GUI. You
can also run script Install GUI or Install MUI.
At least MUI 3.3 is required to use the MUI plugin of MidiPlay. See
the guid for know problems with the plugin.
If you want to use FILETYPEREXX command, see the example script
"FILETYPE01.REXX" for differencies.
3. NEW FEATURES
o TRANSPOSE commands support now individual channels
o Autopatching to map and/or reduce channels automatically
o CONTROLLERCHANGE commands to set controller offsets
o File preloading
o COPYINSTRUMENT for copying instrument information from a channel to another
o DRUMVELOCITY for changing the velocity of drum notes
o PLAYLISTPATH for telling the default playlist directory
o Features for more advanced users: INPUTPORT and OUTPUTPORT
See MidiPlay3.guide for more information.
