Core Program Complete!

with No Comments

Yesterday was a pretty big day as I was able to implement FluidSynth’s sequencer with fewer lines of code than I originally thought I needed. While the program is still not completely perfect, I was able to take the average number of clock ticks per beat and use that to schedule MIDI note messages that do not occur right on the beat. I may make some more adjustments to make the beat detection and tempo more stable, but otherwise, the core functionality of my program is basically done. Now I need to record myself using the program for demo purposes and measure beat detection accuracy for testing purposes.

Two other optional things I can do to make my program better are to improve the GUI by adding information to the window, and to add measure numbers to group beats together. Both serve to make the program and the music, respectively, a little more readable.
