Revision as of 07:53, 1 February 2018
Create a MIDI file with at least 25 MIDI messages.
Incorporate at least 4 of the following features into the MIDI file:
- Type-1 MIDI file (multi-track)
- Patch change (timbre/instrument change)
- Pitch bend (glissandos, temperament)
- Articulations (accents, staccato/legato)
- Continuous controller (master volume, pan)
- Meta message (tempo, key signature, time signature, track name)
- Percussion sounds
- Chords
Send me a copy of the MIDI file (and the text representation) by next Thursday's class so we can play them.
Examples
Here are examples from class that can be used as a reference.

Idea: Try creating a type-1 MIDI file, and add a bass line to the melody using this score: http://imslp.org/wiki/12_Variations_on_%22Ah,_vous_dirai-je_maman%22,_K.265/300e_(Mozart,_Wolfgang_Amadeus)
