NAME
h2player - a CLI player for Hydrogen songs.
SYNOPSIS
h2player *.h2song
DESCRIPTION
h2player can play a song created with Hydrogen without starting its GUI. It does not support any options
but can be controlled via keyboard inputs while running.
You start h2player using a particular song file. It will use all its solo/mute settings as well as audio
driver and transport settings from your last Hydrogen session. If you do not hear any sounds, make sure
you get some when opening the song in plain Hydrogen and hitting play right away.
While running, the application can be controlled using your keyboard. Typing one of the characters below
will result in the following actions:
b - Rewind to the beginning of the song.
p - Start playback.
s - Stop playback.
q - Quit h2player.
f - Show the current transport position in frames.
FILES
For a comprehensive list of files, configuration, and environmental variables, please see the man page of
hydrogen itself.
