Converting MIDI files to internal music secquencer files:
|
|
|
|
cvtmid.py, the MIDI file converter, uses Python and the mido package: https://mido.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
|
|
|
|
Linux and OSX/macOS already have Python installed. Windows will need to install Python 7.2.xx from:
|
|
https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
|
|
|
|
To install mido, use pip. If you are on OSX/macOS, you first need to install pip with:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo easy_install pip
|
|
```
|
|
Then, install mido with:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo pip install mido
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To convert a MIDI file, simply put a MIDI file in the same directory as ctvmid.py and type:
|
|
```
|
|
./cvtmid.py midifile.mid > midifile.seq
|
|
```
|
|
The midifile.seq output file is an ACME assembly file that can be included in another assembly file, a PLASMA file, or assembled into a binary file which can be loaded later. Simply type:
|
|
```
|
|
acme --setpc 0x1000 -o seqfile.bin midifile.seq
|
|
```
|
|
The starting address is irrelevant, but ACME requires one to assemble properly.
