WildMidi_Init(3) WildMidi Programmer's Manual WildMidi_Init(3)NAMEWildMidi_Init - Initialize the library
LIBRARY
libWildMidi
SYNOPSIS
#include <wildmidi_lib.h>
WildMidi_Init (const char *config_file, unsigned short int rate,
unsigned short int options)
DESCRIPTION
Initializes libWildMidi in preparation for playback. This function only
needs to be called once by the program using libWildMidi.
config-file
The file that contains the instrument configuration for the
library.
rate The sound rate you want the the audio data output at. Rates
accepted by libWildMidi are 11025 - 65000.
options
The initial options to set for the library. see below.
WM_MO_LOG_VOLUME
By default the library uses linear volume levels typi‐
cally used in computer MIDI players. These can differ
somewhat to volume levels found on some midi hardware
which may use a volume curve based on decibels. This
option sets the volume levels to what you'd expect on
such devices.
WM_MO_ENHANCED_RESAMPLING
By default libWildMidi uses linear interpolation for the
resampling of the sound samples. Setting this option
enables the library to use a resampling method that
attempts to fill in the gaps giving richer sound.
WM_MO_REVERB
libWildMidi has an 8 reflection reverb engine. Use this
option to give more depth to the output.
WM_MO_WHOLETEMPO
Ignores the fractional or decimal part of a tempo set‐
ting. If you are having timing issues try
WM_MO_ROUNDTEMPO before trying this option. This option
added due to some software not supporting fractional tem‐
pos allowable in the MIDI specification.
WM_MO_ROUNDTEMPO
Rounds the fractional or decimal part of a tempo setting.
Try this option is you are having timing issues, if this
fails then try WM_MO_WHOLETEMPO. This option added due to
some software not supporting fractional tempos allowable
in the MIDI specification.
