Detailed Description

These are the enum used by the library to avoid MIDI hexadecimal values.

Enumeration Type Documentation

anonymous enum

anonymous enum : unsigned char

#include <midi.h>

These are the type values for a MIDI channel message.

For a channel message (with status byte between 0x80 ... 0xef) only the upper four bits of the status determine its type (while lower four bits represent the channel); all status bytes between 0xf0 ... 0xff are considered system messages. You can use these in the MIDIMessage::SetType() method.

anonymous enum

anonymous enum : unsigned char

#include <midi.h>

This is the byte 1 (after the status) of a message with status 0xff (MIDI meta event).

These types are the same as MIDIFile meta-events. When the data length is <= 2 bytes the library stores data in bytes 2 and 3 of the MIDIMessage, otherwise in the MIDISystemExclusive object attached to it. So the format of the meta-events in a MIDIMessage class will be different than the standard MIDIFile meta-events. You can use these in the MIDIMessage::SetMetaType() method.

Enumerator
META_SEQUENCE_NUMBER	Defines the pattern number of a Type 2 MIDI file or the number of a sequence in a Type 0 or Type 1 MIDI file. Should always have a delta time of 0 and come before all MIDI Channel Events and non-zero delta time events. The data length is 2 bytes.
META_GENERIC_TEXT	This and the following are used for embedding ascii text in a MIDI file. They have variable data length (stored in the sysex object).
META_COPYRIGHT	Text: copyright.
META_TRACK_NAME	Text: track name.
META_INSTRUMENT_NAME	Text: instrument name.
META_LYRIC_TEXT	Text: lyric.
META_MARKER_TEXT	Text: marker.
META_CUE_TEXT	Text: cue point.
META_PROGRAM_NAME	Text: program name.
META_DEVICE_NAME	Text: device name.
META_GENERIC_TEXT_A	Text: generic a.
META_GENERIC_TEXT_B	Text: generic b.
META_GENERIC_TEXT_C	Text: generic c.
META_GENERIC_TEXT_D	Text: generic d.
META_GENERIC_TEXT_E	Text: generic e.
META_GENERIC_TEXT_F	Text: generic f.
META_CHANNEL_PREFIX	Associates a MIDI channel with following meta events. Its effect is terminated by another MIDI Channel Prefix event or any non-Meta event. It is often used before an Instrument Name Event to specify which channel an instrument name represents. The data length is 1 byte.
META_OUTPUT_CABLE	This may be used in multiport environments to associate a track with a specific port. The data length is 1 byte.
META_END_OF_TRACK	The end of track marker in a MIDI file (also used in the MIDITrack object). The data length is 0 byte.
META_TEMPO	Specifies a tempo change and has a length of 3 bytes. The data is a 3-byte integer, the number of microseconds for a quarter note. The MIDIMessage::GetTempo() method converts it into the usual bpm value (a double).
META_SMPTE	Specifies the initial SMPTE offset of the beginning of playback. It has 5 data bytes (stored in the sysex object) which denote hours, minutes, second frames and subframes of the SMPTE.
META_TIMESIG	Specifies a musical time signature change. It has 4 data bytes (stored in the sysex object) which denote the time numerator, the denominator power of two (1->2, 2->4, 3->8 etc), the metronome note(24 = quarter, 12 = eigth, 36 dotted quarter etc) and the number of 32th for a quarter note (usually 8, but you are allowed to change this). The MIDIMessage::GetTimeSigNumerator() and MidiMessage::GetTimeSigDenominator() methods give you the timesig numerator and denominator.
META_KEYSIG	Specifies a musical key signature change. It has 2 data bytes: the 1st is a signed char denoting the number of accidents (-7 = 7 flats, 0 = no accidents, +7 = 7 sharps), the second is the mode (0 = major, 1 = minor).
META_SEQUENCER_SPECIFIC	Used to give informations specific to a hardware or software sequencer. The first Data byte (or three bytes if the first byte is 0) specifies the manufacturer's ID and the following bytes contain information specified by the manufacturer. Currently is ignored by the library.
