I was thinking of<br>modifying a midi file to test this using fluid synth.<br>Before I do that can anybody out there tell me <br>1. Is this going to work and if so how much overlap should be applied?<br>2. Is there a better open source way of producing this effect.<br>3. Is it possible to control the attack/decay in line?<br>If not I'll probably just hack a short midi file with a hex editor.<br>Unless you know a better way? <br>Bob Smith
<br><br>_______________________________________________<br></div><br>Have you checked into the Control Change commands and the continuous controllers of your MIDI synth?<br><br>If the continuous controller called Pitch-Bend is available on your MIDI synth, that would probably be the easiest method for slurring.<br><br>For attack and decay, maybe:<br>Sound Controller #3 (Number 72, range value 0-127) is for Release Time<br>Sound Controller #4 (Number 73, range value 0-127) is for Attack Time<br><br>HTH,<br>Stephen.<br></div>
