NAME

       drumgizmo - drum application

SYNOPSIS

       drumgizmo [OPTIONS] <FILE>

DESCRIPTION

       DrumGizmo  is an open source cross-platform drum plugin and stand-alone application. It is
       comparable to several commercial drum plugin products.

       DrumGizmo uses an open drumkit file format, allowing the community  to  create  their  own
       drumkits.  It has multichannel output, making it possible to mix it just the way you would
       a real drumkit. The  optional  built-in  humanizer  analyzes  the  midi  notes,  adjusting
       velocities  on-the-fly.  This  client  can be a stand-alone midi renderer, generating .wav
       files, 1 for each channel. Or use DrumGizmo  as  a  software  sampler  for  an  electronic
       drumkit. There are also plugin versions available.

              jackaudio:

              dummy:

       -e, --endpos
              Number of samples to process, (default -1: infinite)

       -r, --no-resampling

              Enable diskstreaming

       -S, --strimingparms parmlist
              Parameters for controlling the streaming buffers.

              limit=<size> (Limit the amount of preloaded drumkit data to the size)

       -t, --timing-humanizer
              Enable moving of notes in time.
              Note: adds latency to the output so do not use this with a real-time midi drumkit.

       -T, --timing-humanizerparms parmlist
              Timing humanizer options.

EXAMPLES

       Render midifile to wav files:

              file=prefix drumkit.xml
       Receive midi from Jack and send audio output to speakers:
              drumgizmo -i jackmidi -I midimap=midimap.xml -o jackaudio drumkit.xml
