What's the point?
=================
BASSMIDI is an extension to the BASS audio library, enabling the playing of
MIDI files and custom event sequences, using SF2 (including SF2PACK and SF3)
and/or SFZ soundfonts to provide the sounds. MIDI input is also supported.
Requirements
============
BASS 2.4 is required.
Using BASSMIDI
==============
The MIDI format is used in very much the same way as any of the built-in BASS
stream formats; simply call the MIDI stream creation function instead of the
BASS built-in functions. The BASS plugin system (see BASS_PluginLoad) is also
supported.
SF2 and SFZ soundfonts are used to provide the sounds. There are several
soundfonts available on the internet, including a couple on the BASS webpage.
On Windows, the Creative 28MB (28MBGM.SF2), 8MB (CT8MGM.SF2), 4MB (CT4MGM.SF2),
or 2MB (CT2MGM.SF2) soundfont will be used by default when present in the
Windows system directory.
The usage information in the BASS.TXT file (from the BASS package) is also
applicable to BASSMIDI and other add-ons.
TIP: The BASSMIDI.CHM file should be put in the same directory as the BASS.CHM
file, so that the BASSMIDI documentation can be accessed from within the
BASS documentation.
iOS version
-----------
The CoreMIDI framework is required for MIDI input, so that should be added to
the "Link Binary With Libraries" build phase in Xcode.
