help: How to create a midi file using C language
|
|
|
1.I am considering doing a simple midi file generator for my
4th year project in B.SC.
2.I would do it using c language, but i'm not sure how
difficult it would be.
3.Basically, the executable c program would read a text document
with some "musical pseudocode" representing some `tune`.
Then convert the "musical pseudocode" into "midi code" that
could be played in any midi player like `windows media player`.
4.How exactly would you do this? Eg. If you want to hear
"middle c" being played for 2 beats, what exactly do you write
in file.midi sound document?
5.I hear that you could use `truncated fourier series` as a means
to calculate the note value; but how to do this?
6.Also, how to re-create various musical instruments?
7.Please give me some quick guidence on the above issues.
8.Thanks. |

Darn, is Google broken again? :->)
I entered "MIDI file format" and got this link:
http://jedi.ks.uiuc.edu/~johns/links/music/midifile.html
Do the same and you'll see many other such links.
