<p>As the name suggests, MidiPlayer is used to playback MIDI music files. MIDI files are special, as they don't contain the actual digitized and in some way encoded music, but only a description of it: Hold this note for that long with this volume and use instrument X for it.<br/>
While this keeps file sizes pretty small, it also follows that depending on the instrument library (the so-called "SoundFont") the results can differ hugely. Also, these SoundFonts tend to be quite large, increasingly so with the number and quality of the instrument samples.</p>
<divclass="box-info"><p>Haiku releases include a small but relatively high quality SoundFont. People who use MIDI more seriously often already have very high quality or custom SoundFonts.</p>
<p>To use other SoundFonts (that don't come installable via HaikuDepot as a HPKG), just copy the .sf file to e.g. <tt>~/config/non-packaged/data/synth/</tt>. You can select the active SoundFont in the Media preferences under <spanclass="menu">MIDI</span>.</p></div>
<p>MidiPlayer's interface is very simple. Just double-click or drag & drop a midi file and playback starts. You control the volume with the slider and add reverb effects from the <spanclass="menu">Reverb</span> pop-up menu. Activating the scope will show a visualization in form of an oscilloscope running at the top.</p>
