MIDI

MIDI:Musical Instrument Digtial Interface

Five Steps:

1.Gets a Sequencer and open it

     Sequencer player=MidiSystem.getSequencer();

     player.open();

2. Make a new Sequence

    Sequence seq=new Sequence(timing,4);

3.Get a new Track from the Sequence;

   Track t=seq.CreateTrack();

4.Fill the Track with MidiEvents and give the Sequence to the Sequencer

   t.add(myMidiEvent1);

   player.setSequence(seq);

 Example:

import javax.sound.midi.*; public class Untitled927 {     public static void main(String[] args){   Untitled927 one=new Untitled927();   one.play();     }     public void play(){   try{     Sequencer player=MidiSystem.getSequencer();     player.open();         Sequence seq=new Sequence(Sequence.PPQ,4);         Track track=seq.createTrack();         ShortMessage a=new ShortMessage();     a.setMessage(144,1,44,100);     MidiEvent noteon=new MidiEvent(a,1);     track.add(noteon);         ShortMessage b=new ShortMessage();     b.setMessage(128,1,44,100);     MidiEvent noteoff=new MidiEvent(b,16);     track.add(noteoff);         player.setSequence(seq);         player.start();           }catch(Exception ex){   ex.printStackTrace();   }       } }

Make a MidiEvent (song data)

1.Make a Message

    ShortMessage a =new ShortMessage();

2.put  the Instruction in the Message

    a.setMessage(114,1,44,100);

3.Make a new MidiEvent using the Message

     MidiEvent noteon=new MidiEvent (a,1);

4.Add the MidiEvent to the Track

     track.add(noteon);

 

Midi message :the heart of a MidiEvent

 a.setMessage(Message type,channel,note to play, velocity);
