midi

I'm trying to play midi within a browser, and have been using a Java Applet that works just fine on PCs. Its extremely unreliable on OSX, so I wrote a simple test case that exhibits the same problem: import javax.sound.midi.*; import java.io.InputStream; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.FileInputStream; import java.io.FileNotFoundException; public class MidiPlayer { public static void main(String[] args) { try { Sequencer sequencer = MidiSystem.getSequencer(); if (sequencer == null) throw new MidiUnavailableException(); sequencer.open(); FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream(

I have about 80 compositions written in MIDI and I want to convert them in to WAVE using a sound library. So they can be played on all computers and sound the same. Is there a library that can automate this? Preferably in C#, but other programming languages are fine too. This is what's called a Soft Synth , you will also need a set of instrument samples if you want them the sound the same on all machines. You may find that you will save memory if you just convert them all to wave files once and ship the wave files. A high quality instrument set can be quite large, and most of them are

Does anyone know if there is a free/cheap MIDI player/synthesizer library that I can incorporate into my iPhone application? As I understand it the iPhone doesn't have native support for MIDI playback. To work around this limitation I've created a bank of .caf sound samples that I playback myself but I'd really like to improve the implementation and use MIDI if possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Since 10 october of 2011, that is since iOS5, Apple has started delivering basic API for midi files playback. The API is called MusicPlayer along with MusicSequence Check this out :

I've got a trigger finger (MIDI tablet) and I want to be able to read its input live and make python execute actions depending on the pressed key. I need it for Windows, and preferably working with python 2.5 + Thanks PyGame includes a built-in midi module , available for Linux, Windows and MacOS and is very well supported. For example, here is the documentation for pygame.midi.Input : Input is used to get midi input from midi devices. Input(device_id) Input(device_id, buffer_size) Input.close - closes a midi stream, flushing any pending buffers. closes a midi stream, flushing any pending

I've inherited a Java project that used an old C++ dll to receive MIDI data from a piano connected to the computer. Now that Java has built-in support for MIDI devices, I want to get rid of the legacy C++ dll and just use pure Java. Does Java support receiving data from a piano connected to the computer? I've searched Google for examples to no avail. Yes, the JavaSound API can be used to read MIDI data from a MIDI device. JFugue is a Java API for music programming that uses the JavaSound API, and can help simplify your interaction with JavaSound. In JFugue 5.x, sample code to capture 10

I'm new to this field - but I need to perform a WAV-to-MIDI conversion in java. Is there a way to know what exactly are the steps involved in WAV-to-MIDI conversion? I have a very rough idea as in you need to; sample the wav file, filter it, use FFT for spectral analysis, feature extraction and then write the extracted features on to MIDI. But I cannot find solid sources or papers as in how to do all that? Can some one give me clues as in how and where to start? Are there any Open Source APIs available for this WAV-to-MIDI conversion process? Advance thanks It's a more involved process than

I have a guitar diagram app for Android that I am porting to iOS. Android has a embedded midi synthesizer (sonivox), so I can generate midi files and let Android handle the playback. Is there a way to do this on iOS? Or are there very lightweight embeddable synths for iOS? Update: My answer is out-of-dated. @lukebuehler's answer is much appropriate. If you don't mind non-opensource solution, try FMOD . Being a commercial audio engine for games, fmod equips a simple MIDI synth. I've tried the free evaluation version. It plays GM MIDI files correctly on my iPhone 3G. If what you want is not just
