As such, if you wish to playback your MIDI clips you will need to select an output device to play back to. It is just a sequence of instructions which can be sent to a synthesizer which can then convert the instructions into audible notes. It is important to note that a MIDI clip is not an audio file. You add a MIDI clip to your project the same way you add a normal audio clip - either by dragging and dropping or from one of the Load options under the 'Clip' menu. This allows you greater flexibility in your mixes. Unlike most digital audio workstations, MixPad allows you to add a MIDI clip to any track - it does not distinguish between a MIDI track and an audio track. Returns the current volume of the MIDI sequence (0 – 127).MIDI Playback MixPad supports the playback of MIDI files. Returns the volume of the MIDI sequence (0 – 127). Return MIDI sequence’s default tempo (in beats per minute). Return MIDI sequence’s playback tempo (in beats per minute).

Set MIDI sequence’s playback tempo in beats per minute (e.g., 60). Returns the MIDI sequence’s playback pitch (0-127). Set the MIDI sequence’s playback pitch (0-127) by transposing the MIDI material. Returns True if the MIDI sequence is still playing, False otherwise. Resumes MIDI sequence playback (from the paused position). Pauses MIDI sequence playback (remembers current position for resume). Stops MIDI sequence playback immediately.

Once a MIDI sequence, m, has been created, the following functions are available: Function Parameter volume (optional) specifies a MIDI note velocity to be used for playback (default is 127). Parameter pitch (optional) specifies a MIDI note number to be used for playback (default is A4). Use the following function to create a MidiSequence object: FunctionĬreates a MIDI sequence from the MIDI material specified in material (this may be a filename of an external MIDI file, a Part, or a Score object. This class is included in the music library, so, you need the following in your program: from music import * Again, these functions are intended for building interactive musical instruments and installations. A MIDI sequence provides playback features that are similar to the functionality described above for audio samples. The MidiSequence class includes functions related to playing external MIDI files (as well as Part and Score objects) in real-time.
