@Christoph-Hart Any chance you'll have a Tutorial posted for this feature? Im digging in tonight

By the way, the midi player sync is not working properly.

When I open a 4 bar midi loop, the loop plays 4 or 8 times faster.

I've noticed that too

@Steve-Mohican @ulrik
Do you guys have a snippit of how you're implementing the feature? Looking for some programming inspiration.

[A Former User]

@dustbro For midi player I used drag and drop feature to load midi files. But every time I load different midi files, midi player began to so so speedy (as I mentioned above, 8 times faster). So I haven't got any special snippet yet, but I can share when I will.

Hmm works for me well in a project I am currently working on.

Can you send me the MIDI file, perhaps there is some metadata in my files that I am expecting to be standard, but are missing in yours?

@Christoph-Hart here's a midi file that I use inside Hise, the original tempo is quarter note = 200bpm, but when I play it in Hise I have to set global tempo to half the tempo, 100bpm.

@dustbro I use it for demoing the sample library so the user can can chose one of many built in midi files to play, it looks like this:

inline function onDemoSongsControl(component, value)
{
    MIDIPlay.stop(0);
	DemoTimer.stopTimer();
	Engine.setHostBpm(-1);
    DemoSongs.set("items", DemoSongsArr.join("\n"));
    
    if(value < SongInfo.length)
    {
        MIDIPlay.setFile("{PROJECT_FOLDER}"+DemoSongsArr[value]+".mid", true, true);
        SongInfoPnl.set("visible", true);
        SongInfoLbl.set("text", SongInfo[value]);
        Engine.setHostBpm(DemoSongsTempi[value]);
        MIDIPlay.play(50000);
        DemoTimer.startTimer(7000);
        DemoOnBtn.setValue(1);
    }
    else
    {
        SongInfoPnl.set("visible", false);
        DemoSongsPnl.set("visible", false);
        label7.set("enabled", false);
        DemoOnBtn.setValue(0);
    }
};

Content.getComponent("DemoSongs").setControlCallback(onDemoSongsControl);

Ah, thanks, it's what I thought, you're using a MIDI resolution of 480ppq, while I am expecting 960ppq, which I thought was standard.

Unfortunately fixing this is not as trivial as I hoped, I need to convert them manually if the resolution doesn't match (because internally I am doing everything in 960ppq).

[ulrik]

@Christoph-Hart I see, is there a command to apply in the code when loading a midi file, that will half the tempo of the midi file, like "Engine.setHostBpm("midiFile.getResolution() * 2)"...
I mean "Engine.setHostBpm("midiFile.getTempo() / 2)". or something?
