## Generating Base64 Soundfonts

There is two generators for MIDI.js soundfonts:

* NodeJS package for creating soundfonts from WAV files - by Patrick Wolleb
* Ruby package for creating soundsfonts from SF2 files - by Mohit Muthanna

To dive in quickly Benjamin Gleitzman has created a package of [pre-rendered sound fonts](https://github.com/gleitz/midi-js-soundfonts).

## API

### [MIDI.loadPlugin.js](./js/midi/loader.js) - Decides which framework is best to use

```javascript
// interface to download soundfont, then execute callback;
MIDI.loadPlugin(onsuccess);
// simple example to get started;
MIDI.loadPlugin({
    instrument: "acoustic_grand_piano", // or the instrument code 1 (aka the default)
    instruments: [ "acoustic_grand_piano", "acoustic_guitar_nylon" ], // or multiple instruments
    onsuccess: function() { }
});
```

### [MIDI.Plugin.js](./js/midi/plugin.webaudio.js) - Controls MIDI output

```javascript
MIDI.noteOn(channel, note, velocity, delay);
MIDI.noteOff(channel, note, delay);
MIDI.chordOn(channel, [note, note, note], velocity, delay);
MIDI.chordOff(channel, [note, note, note], delay);
MIDI.keyToNote = object; // A0 => 21
MIDI.noteToKey = object; // 21 => A0
```

### [MIDI.Player.js](./js/midi/player.js) - Plays MIDI stream

```javascript
MIDI.Player.currentTime = integer; // time we are at now within the song.
MIDI.Player.endTime = integer; // time when song ends.
MIDI.Player.playing = boolean; // are we playing? yes or no.
MIDI.Player.loadFile(file, onsuccess); // load .MIDI from base64 or binary XML request.
MIDI.Player.start(); // start the MIDI track (you can put this in the loadFile callback)
MIDI.Player.resume(); // resume the MIDI track from pause.
MIDI.Player.pause(); // pause the MIDI track.
MIDI.Player.stop(); // stops all audio being played, and resets currentTime to 0.
```

### Listener for when notes are played

```javascript
MIDI.Player.removeListener(); // removes current listener.
MIDI.Player.addListener(function(data) { // set it to your own function!
    var now = data.now; // where we are now
    var end = data.end; // time when song ends
    var channel = data.channel; // channel note is playing on
    var message = data.message; // 128 is noteOff, 144 is noteOn
    var note = data.note; // the note
    var velocity = data.velocity; // the velocity of the note
    // then do whatever you want with the information!
});
```

### Smooth animation interpolating between onMidiEvent calls

```javascript
MIDI.Player.clearAnimation(); // clears current animation.
MIDI.Player.setAnimation(function(data) {
    var now = data.now; // where we are now
    var end = data.end; // time when song ends
    var events = data.events; // all the notes currently being processed
    // then do what you want with the information!
});
```
