A MIDI/Karaoke player for KDE4
KMid2 is a MIDI and Karaoke player for the KDE4 desktop environment.
KMid was developed more than ten years ago, so it was time for a revamping. KMid2 is a rewrite from scratch, with a new architecture and also some new features.
Here are some key features of "KMid2":
· Plays MIDI and Karaoke files.
· Playback to external hardware MIDI devices.
· Allows to use software synths as well.
· Tempo and volume controls.
· Pitch (transpose) control.
· Rhythm view (visual metronome).
· Configurable character encoding, font and color for lyrics.
· Playlists (song collections).
· MIDI Mapper.
· Channels window, with solo/muting controls and instrument selectors.
· Piano player window, using VMPK artwork and technology.
· Runs in Linux, using the ALSA Sequencer.
Requirements:
· KDE Software Compilation
What's New in This Release:
· New Mac OSX and Windows backends
Fixes in ALSA sequencer backend:
· don't set an explicit output pool size, using the default size instead.
· unconditionally reload MIDI devices before checking the available outputs.
· Drumstick libraries v0.3.1 recommended.
