Midi Library for Android [closed]

Question

Been searching google for a midi library for android.Nothing seems to promising.

Anyone know of some midi libraries for Android?

Answer 1

This is a simple but great sample application that successfully streams MIDI on Android https://github.com/billthefarmer/mididriver

You will have to put your MIDI messages together manually though ( the example creates two MIDI messages for play note and stop note). One can refer to the MIDI specification to further control the MIDI channels. The problem is that the default sound fonts on Android sound so bad.

Answer 2

There's a bare bones Java MIDI library here on Google Code, source and all:

http://code.google.com/p/android-midi-lib/

It won't do any sound playback, but you can read, modify, and write MIDI files with fairly high-level method calls.

Answer 3

According to the list of supported media types in the Android docs, MIDI playback support is built in. To play MIDI, you can use a JetPlayer. More details are in the JETCreator User Manual.
