Hi, I've been working on this app for playing MIDI files with different soundfonts. It's been a few months of work, but I think it's inching towards being good enough to publish for real. There are still a couple fundamental features missing before v1.0.0, but I thought it would be a good time to share it and ask for opinions in a programming community. Any critique on the app, or code? Do people out there even care about midi files this much? Thanks.
Hey cool, thanks for the recommendation, I added CT4MGM and a couple other fonts to my collection. I have already found fonts that do deranged stuff, like defining offsets outside the buffer they're supposed to be in.
Right now I'm not creating the sounds myself, but rather using a library for the purpose. I'm intending to replace it with my own implementation (or a suitable alternative, if one exists) later, if I just have the time. The biggest remaining blocker for release is doing exactly that for the midi sequencer, because the current one doesn't let me do seeking.
I have other related projects planned as well, like a soundfont compiler that builds a font from "source code" that consists of loose samples and text files that define the instruments. I promised myself to not start anything until this one is out, though.
