Usage
Quickstart:
Most will only need Soundbox to import MIDI files into their SCI0 games.
- Use format 0 or format 1 standard MIDI files. Format 2 files are not supported.
- Leave channel 16 empty. Don't try to play music on it.
- Don't rely on embedded sysex messages. They will be removed during import.
- Break large, long, heavily layered works into smaller pieces. An individual sound resource should not be larger than 64k. If necessary, a number of resources can be played one after the other.
- To convert the MIDI file, choose File -> Import MIDI from the menu.
- To save the imported resource, use File -> Save As.
- To play imported MIDI resources in Sierra's DOS interpreters, get the SCI0 MPU MIDI sound driver.
