PianoNinja Video #4: Scrolling notes from MIDI file!
Tonight I got some scrolling notes to appear on the screen in response to MIDI events being played back from a MIDI file. Observe:
There are a number of deficiencies still:
- no bar lines (that aren’t irrelevant and hard-coded still)
- no note durations (also hard-coded)
- no right-hand/left-hand distinction (all hard-coded to the right)
- stems are too short in some cases, erroneously breaking the chord up
- no beams for grouping related notes in a line
Despite these deficiencies, I’m really stoked. I’m starting to get a sense of what it will be like to use this game and to practice sight-reading with it (using Klavarskribo notation, of course). My vision is starting to be realized!
