Demo Mac MIDI Piano Roll Files Available
By Robbie Rhodes
[ Editor's Note: [ [ Yesterday evening Robbie sent me two copies of some piano roll [ demo files which are available for our subscribers to play around [ with if they would like to. The two "copies" are formatted [ differrently, one copy for PCs and the other for Macintoshes. The [ files are each further processed so they can be sent as e-mail. Thats [ the good news. The bad news is that including them in tonight's digest [ would make this digest 2200 lines long. Many of you will not have a use [ for either of these messages. Those that do want to use them will [ probably want to discard the message which is in the "wrong" format [ for their personal computer. I'm going to transmit these messages, but [ as seperate transmissions. They will be easier to delete that way if [ you don't want them. I'm going to apologize in advance if receiving [ these large files is a problem for your system. If I get many complaints [ I'll figure out a way to allow users interested in receiving this kind of [ thing in the future to send a specific request based on a message similar [ to the one below.
The succeding message < JeffD.Mac.sea.hqx > will be "The Jefferson Davis" archive for the Macintosh. The files archived are
JEFFD .MID - piano roll file only. [Midi] JEFFDL .MID - piano roll file with Lyrics. [Midi] JEFFD .DOC - documentation file [TEXT] JEFFD .LRX - lyrics file [TEXT]
I used Compact Pro v1.33 to create self-extracting archive JeffD.Mac.sea, and then used BinHex4 (within Compact Pro) to create file JeffD.Mac.sea.hqx which can be transmitted with 7-bit Ascii facilities on the 'net. (It says here....)
Then I tested it, and it works! Will wonders never cease.
