20 This is a demonstration program to show the capabilities of libWild‐
21 Midi.
22 midifile can be a MIDI type file in the HMI, HMP, MIDI, MUS or XMI for‐
24 mats and is processed by libWildMidi and the resulting audio is output
25 by the player.
26 You can have more than one midifile on the command line and wildmidi
28 will pass them to libWildMidi for processing, one after the other. You
29 can also use wildcards, for example: wildmidi *.mid

32 -b | --reverb
33 Turns on an 8 point reverb engine that adds depth to the final
34 mix.
35 -c config-file | --config config-file
37 Uses the configuration file stated by config-file instead of
38 /etc/wildmidi/wildmidi.cfg
39 -d audiodev | --device=audiodev
41 Send the audio to audiodev instead of the default. ALSA defaults
42 to the system "default" while OSS defaults to "/dev/dsp". Other
43 environments do not support this option.
44 -h | --help
46 Displays command line options.
47 -f | --frequency
49 Use frequency F Hz for playback (MUS).
50 -g | --convert
52 Convert XMI: 0 - No Conversion (default)
53 1 - MT32 to GM
54 2 - MT32 to GS
55 -l | --log_vol
57 Some MIDI files have been recorded on hardware that uses a vol‐
58 ume curve, making them sound really badly mixed on other MIDI
59 devices. Use this option to use volume curves.
60 -m volume-level | --mastervol=volume-level
62 Set the overall volume level to volume-level. The minimum is 0
63 and the maximum is 127, with the default being 100.
64 -o wav-file | --wavout=wav-file
66 Records the audio in wav format to wav-file.
67 -r sndrate | --rate=sndrate
69 Set the audio output rate to sndrate. The default rate is 32072.
70 -n | --roundtempo
72 Round tempo to nearest whole number.
73 -s | --skipsilentstart
75 Skips any silence at the start of playback.
76 -v | --version
78 Display version and copyright information.
79 -x | --tomidi
81 Convert a MUS or an XMI file to midi and save to file.
82
84 These options are not designed for general use. Instead these options
85 are designed to make it easier to listen to specific sound samples.
86 Note: These options are not displayed by -h | --help
88 -k N | --test_bank=N
90 Set the test bank to N. Range is 0 to 127.
91 -p N | --test_patch=N
93 Set the test patch to N. Range is 0 to 127.
94 -t | --test_midi
96 Plays the built in test midi which plays all 127 notes.
97
99 The player accepts limited user input that allows some interaction
100 while playing midi files.
101 + Turns the master volume up.
103 - Turns the master volume down.
105 e Turns enhanced resampling on and off.
107 l Turns volume curves on and off.
109 r Turns the final mix reverb on and off.
111 n Play the next midi on the command line.
113 m Save the currently playing file to a midi file. NOTE: This saves
115 to the current directory.
116 p Pause the playback. Note: since the audio is buffered it will
118 stop when the audio buffer is empty.
119 . Seek forward 1 second. Note: Clears active midi events and will
121 only play midi events from after the new position.
122 , Seek backwards 1 second. Note: Clears active midi events and
124 will only play midi events from after the new position.
125 q Quit wildmidi.
