-================================================
- MusE loadable Midi Instrument Definitions
- (as of 10.09.2003) MusE 0.7.0
-================================================
-
- - File Extension ".idf"
- - searched in Subdirectory "instruments"
- (/usr/share/muse/instruments on my system)
-
- All found instrument definitions are presented by MusE
- in Config->MidiPorts in Pulldown in column "Instrument".
-
--------------------------------------------------
- Example of Instrument Definition File:
--------------------------------------------------
-
-<?xml version="1.0"?>
-<muse version="1.0">
- <MidiInstrument name="GM">
- <Init>
- ...MusE event list which initializes instrument
- </Init>
- <PatchGroup name="Piano">
- <Patch name="Grand Piano" prog="0"/>
- <Patch name="Bright Piano" prog="1"/>
- ...
- </PatchGroup>
- <PatchGroup name="Bass">
- <Patch name="Acoustic Bass" prog="32"/>
- <Patch name="Fingered Bass" prog="33"/>
- </PatchGroup>
- ...
- <Controller name="Brightness">
- <n>0x4a</n>
- <min>0</min>
- <max>127</max>
- <init>0</init>
- </Controller>
- ...
- </MidiInstrument>
- </muse>

--------------------------------------------------
- Notes
--------------------------------------------------
-
- (1) PatchGroups are not mandatory; its valid to write:
-
- <MidiInstrument name="GM">
- <Patch name="Grand Piano" prog="0"/>
- <Patch name="Bright Piano" prog="1"/>
- <Patch name="Acoustic Bass" prog="32"/>
- <Patch name="Fingered Bass" prog="33"/>
- ...
- </MidiInstrument>
-
- (2) An "Instrument Definition File" can define more than on
- Instrument, but it is recommended to use one file for
- one instrument
-
- (3) the "prog" parameter in a "Patch" is mandatory. Missing
- "hbank" or "lbank" are treated as "don't care".
- Missing "drum" is treated as drum="0".
-
- A XG-Patch looks like:
- <Patch name="Electro" drum="1" hbank="127" lbank="0" prog="24"/>
-
- (5) A patch can be associated with a "mode" with one of
-
- 1 - GM
- 2 - GS
- 4 - XG
-
- Example:
- <Patch name="Electro" mode="4" drum="1" hbank="127" lbank="0" prog="24"/>
-
- Mode id's can be ore'd together for patches which are valid
- for more than one mode:
-
- <Patch name="Grand Piano" mode=7" hbank="0" lbank="0" prog="0"/>
-
- (4) example for MusE event (Sysex "XG-On"):
-
- <event tick="0" type="5" datalen="7">
- 43 10 4c 00 00 7e 00
- </event>
-
- (5) <Init> ... </Init> part can be omitted
-
-
- (6) Controller have the following porperties:
-
- name: arbitrary unique (short) string describing the controller
- n: controller number, defines also the controller type:
- values from 0x0 - 0x7f are 7Bit controller
- values from 0x1000 - 0x1ffff are 14 bit controller with
- MSB/LSB value pairs
- values from 0x20000 - 0x2ffff are RPN's
- values from 0x30000 - 0x3ffff are NRPN's
-
- min: minimum value for controller
- max: maximum value for controller
- init: reset value for controller; when controller value is
- undefined after instrument reset, use the ''undefined''
- value 0x10000
-
- the min/max/init values can be ommited
-
