- What is Scoremid?
-
- Scoremid is a utility to convert one ore more score files created with the
- Notation program SCORE V3.X in a standard MIDI file.
-
- Major features of Scoremid include:
- - full support of cross staff beaming
- - key and clef changes
- - multiple voices on a staff
- - chaining the information of multiple SCORE files in one MIDI file
-
- The following equipment is required to use Scoremid:
- - the SCORE Program V3.0 or higher written by Leland Smith
- - a Sequencer program
- - a Sound device (Soundcard, MPU-Card+Keyboard ... )
-
- Scoremid V0.9 is a free Trialversion with limited features:
- - only five SCORE files can be chained.
- - only the musical Information of staff 1 to 4 is processed.
- - slurs and ties are not processed to get additional pitch information.
-
- If you are interested in the full featured Version or if you want to
- report any bugs please contact me via email phone or letter.
-
- Usage:
- The file !sc2mid.exe is a self extracting file package containing the following
- files:
- SCOREMID.DOC this file you are reading now
- SCOREMID.EXE the program
- RH170.MUS a complex SCORE file
- RHAPSODY.MID a MIDI file generated with Scoremid.
-
- If you are ready you can run SCOREMID.EXE:
- Scoremid will prompt you for the 1st file and the number of files you
- want to be processed. It works in the same way as the PAGE program
- included in the SCORE package.
-
- Then Scoremid let you add time to the fist bar. If you don't want to
- do that enter 0. The time add helps you to synchronize the Sequencer
- if there are pickup notes in the beginning of the piece. For example:
- your piece has a 3/4 key signature and a quarternote pickup. If you
- add 2.0 to the 1st bar the 1st bar has also 3 beats.
-
- At last Scoremid prompts you to enter the name of the output file.
- Use the file extention *.MID because Scoremid creates a format 0 Standard-
- MIDI-file. I use format 0 because all sequencers can read it.
-
- In the package included are a SCORE file (RH170.MUS) and a Midifile
- (RHAPSODY.MID). I created the MIDI file with scoremid. I read the file
- in a sequencer added some tempo-information and saved it in a
- format 1 Standard MIDI file. It is the Russian Rhapsody for two Pianos
- by Sergei Rachmaninoff. The file RH170.MUS is the bar 170 of this piece.
- Load it into SCORE and have a look to get a feeling what scoremid is
- able to process.
-
- Scoremid is a copyrighted program. It may not be changed or modified
- in any way except by the author. Scoremid may be freely distributed
- so long as all files are included and no money is charged.
-
- All warranties are disclaimed, including damage to hardware and/or
- software from use of this program. In no event will I be liable to
- you for any damages, including lost profits, lost savings or other
- incidental or consequential damages.
-
- Every effort has been made to ensure that Scoremid is as clean and
- free of bugs as possible. However, no program can ever be guaranteed
- to be free of all defects.
