NAME

       mididings - MIDI router and processor

SYNOPSIS

       mididings [options] "patch"

       mididings [options] -f filename

DESCRIPTION

       mididings is a MIDI router and processor based on Python, supporting ALSA and JACK MIDI.

       Many features are provided:

       MIDI routing and filtering
              Filter  events depending on their event type, channel, note number, velocity, etc.,
              and freely route them between an arbitrary number of input and output ports.

       Modifying and converting MIDI events
              Transpose notes, apply velocity curves, change controller  values  and  ranges,  or
              convert  events  to any other MIDI event type. mididings also includes more complex
              functions like a diatonic harmonizer, floating split  points,  latched  notes,  and
              more.

       Seamless switching between patches
              Set  up  different  "scenes",  each  with  its own MIDI routing and processing, and
              switch between them at any time, even while  playing.  Switching  scenes  does  not
              affect notes already held, and does not result in dropouts or stuck notes!

       MIDI event monitoring, running external commands
              Print MIDI event data to the console to help debugging your patches and configuring
              your MIDI controllers. In addition to its MIDI output, mididings can  also  execute
              shell commands and send OSC or DBUS messages.
