midii 0.1.26

Midi Insights: midi analyzer

MIDI Insights

This package inherits MidiFile of mido, adding note duration quantization functionality MidiFile.quantize and improving the MidiFile.print_tracks method.

import midii

mid = midii.MidiFile(
    midii.sample.dataset[0], # or 'song.mid'
    lyric_encoding="cp949"
)
mid.quantize(unit="32")
mid.print_tracks()

Installation

pip install midii

API

midii.sample

midii.sample: It contains some sample midi files.

• dataset: List object that contains some midi dataset for deep learning model. The lyric encoding of these midi files is "cp949" or "utf-8"

• simple: List object that contains some simple midi dataset. It is artificially created midi file for test purpose.

midii.quantize

midii.quantize(ticks, unit="32", ticks_per_beat=480, error_forwarding=True): quantization function

class midii.MidiFile

class midii.MidiFile(filename=None, file=None, type=1, ticks_per_beat=480, charset='latin1', debug=False, clip=False, tracks=None, convert_1_to_0=False, lyric_encoding='latin-1')

The parameters of this class are no different from those of the mido.MidiFile class it inherits, except for convert_1_to_0=False and lyric_encoding='latin-1'.

If you want to convert midi file type 1 to 0, pass convert_1_to_0=True.

lyric_encoding specify encoding of lyric data.

• quantize(unit="32"): Quantize note duration. You can define least unit of quantization from "1"(whole note), "2"(half note), "4"(quarter note), "8"(eighth note), "16"(sixteenth note), "32"(thirty-second note), "64"(sixty-fourth note), "128"(hundred twenty-eighth note), "256"(two hundred fifty-sixth note)

  The smaller the minimum unit, the less sync error with the original, and the weaker the quantization effect. As the minimum unit becomes larger, the sync error with the original increases and the quantization effect increases.

• print_tracks(track_limit=None, print_note=True, print_time=True, print_lyric=False, track_list=None, print_note_info=False): An overriding function that improves the existing mido.print_tracks.

  By default it will print all lines of track. By setting like track_limit=20, You can define upper bound of lines to be printed.

  By default it will prints all tracks. You can specify the tracks you want to output in the list track_list. For example, track_list=[], or track_list=["piano", "intro"].

Example

print_tracks

• print_tracks: mido.MidiFile.print_tracks → midii.MidiFile.print_tracks

  

  

quantize

• quantize(unit="32"):

  The smaller the minimum unit, the less sync error with the original, and the weaker the quantization effect.

  As the minimum unit becomes larger, the sync error with the original increases and the quantization effect increases.
