-
- µZak and Arnolds Midi player both work fine. Both are public domain
- programs. You can launch them from SCOM using the launching utility
- plug-in. When you set up them to play through Quicktime MIDI you get
- your target behaviour.
-
- To let SCOM play back trough QuickTime Musical Instruments
- in µZak 1.6 (public domain program) follow this:
-
- The you need to install midi-launcher plugin (on the CD in plug-ins
- folder).
-
- Then compile-song, compile-istrument, or use play-file. The idea
- here is not to let SCOM launch the file with Midishare, just save
- the MIDI file into the output folder to a known name...
-
- (play-file "song"
- all-instr '(sect-a sect-b)
- )
-
- ... and then launch a sequencer which loads the MIDI file.
-
- (launch-midi "µZak" "song")
