NAME¶
midish —
MIDI sequencer and filter
SYNOPSIS¶
DESCRIPTION¶
Midish is a MIDI sequencer/filter implemented as an interactive command-line
interpreter (users wanting to use midish interactively may consider using the
rmidish(1) utility). Here are some of its
features:
- Multiple MIDI devices handling
- Synchronisation to external MIDI devices
- Filtering/routing (controller mapping, keyboard splitting, ...)
- Track recording, editing, quatisation
- Import and export of standard MIDI files
- Tempo and time-signature changes, user configurable metronome
- System exclusive messages handling
The options are as follows:
-b- Do not process $HOME/.midishrc or
/etc/midishrc and stop on the first
error on the standard input. Useful for scripting
-h- Print usage information.
-v- Print additionnal info before each line of input, useful to front-ends and
for dubugging.
Once midish started, the interpreter processes the
$HOME/.midishrc file (or
/etc/midishrc if the later dosn't exist)
and starts prompting for commands. For further information about the syntax of
midish refer to the “Midish user's
manual”.
