General midi player generator#

The awesome XYbeatZ midi drum generator uses midi drum formatting so using the GM player as your sound source is a good place to start when working with this device. If you have a drum midi file the different parts of the drum kit are mapped to the midi specifications for playback. A good choice when drawing in your own beats as well. You can also find some useful Drum Kits in the GM Player like a basic 808 kit, jazz, rock and orchestral sets as well as percussion. In this example we selected a chord midi file from the Keyboard folder in the Sound Library and selected a Chior Sound to use as a sound pad for this track. It is a bass line so the midi notes are in a low register so a low tonal instrument will sound more natural, if that is what you want. You can select the Instruments in the drop-down menu and they are organized in instrument type groupings.įor example, if we load in the first midi file in the Bass folder from the Sound Library, you can experiment with lots of different instruments to find one to your liking. GM Player contains over 125 instruments and to make the studio launch faster they are loaded upon request in the device chain.

GM Player stands for General Midi and it is a standard protocol of virtual instruments for midi playback.

This week let´s take a look at the GM Player in Amped Studio.
