midi_play {fluidsynth} | R Documentation |
Play or convert a midi file
Description
Play a midi file to your audio device, render it to a file, or parse the raw data. Additional settings can be specified, see fluidsynth_setting_list for available options.
Usage
midi_play(
midi = demo_midi(),
soundfont = soundfont_path(),
audio.driver = NULL,
settings = list(),
verbose = interactive()
)
midi_convert(
midi = demo_midi(),
soundfont = soundfont_path(),
output = "output.mp3",
settings = list(),
verbose = interactive()
)
midi_read(midi = demo_midi(), verbose = FALSE)
demo_midi()

Details
The midi_convert
function internally uses fluidsynth to generate a raw wav file,
and then av::av_audio_convert()
to convert into the requested about format. See
av::av_muxers()
for supported output formats and their corresponding file extension.
You need a soundfont to synthesize midi, see the soundfonts page. On Linux you may
also need to specify an audio.driver
that works for your hardware, although on
recent distributions the defaults generally work.
Value
midi_read returns data frame with midi events.
