TMIDI Player v3.8.6 (Translated English Version) ------------------------------------------------ I complete a translation of TMIDI v3.8.6 (http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA010012, http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA010012/programs/tmidi_3_8_6.exe). Download the translated version here, http://www.mediafire.com/?qd45n380b0djsw4. Note that I'm not very proficient at English, so if you have any advice on this translation, please feel free to contact me at any time. Here are a few TMIDI tips and tricks written in the original Japanese manual, translated to English: 1. You can quickly switch and compare different sound modules by using MIDI Port Mapping. You can assign shortcuts. For example, assign "Num 0" to "No Port Mapping", and "Num 1-4" to "Port Mapping 1-4". And then you can switch different mapping by simplely pressing "Num 1-4". 2. You can double-click on the "Part Level" LCD monitor at the lower-left corner of the screen to switch from dual-port to single-port view. 3. You can select the default target sound module to let TMIDI to display the proper names of the instruments. You can force TMIDI auto-detect the target sound module. TMIDI will then search for the keywords written in the MIDI file (or corresponding "DOC" file) to determine which sound module is used while playing the MIDI file. The auto-detected module will show a "*" mark in front of the module name. 4. You can set the source module currently in use to active the "Emulating" function. TMIDI will then emulate the target module based on what you set for the source module. For example, the SC-33 lacks the MT-32/CM-64 bank (CC00=127/126). If a MIDI file composed with these SC-55 banks, TMIDI will change the SC-33 bank to emulate the SC-55's MT-32/CM-64 bank by using the proper patch-mapping. 5. By single-clicking or double-clicking the left or right mouse button on the screen's main panel, you can change or switch a lot of MIDI controllers while playing. Such as: BPM, Transpose, Channel Mute (left-click)/Solo (double-click)/All (right-click), Instrument/Bank/Map, Volume, Expression, Reverb/Chorus/Variation Send, Panpot, Pitch Bend, Modulation, Sustain/Sosutenuto/Soft Pedal, Vibrato/Filter/Envelope/EQ (click on the greyed-out "NRPN" in the upper-right corner of the screen, to switch the panel to the NRPN/Controller editor). Click and hold the left mouse button, and click the right mouse button (or clikc and hold the right mouse button, and click the left mouse button) to speed up the changing of the parameter values.
