KayeThom!'s AWE32 MIDI player for Windows 95

I already have a midi player. What's so great about this program?

If you have a Sound Blaster 32, AWE32, AWE64 or similar, with DRAM memory on the card, then you can load extra instruments to your soundcard. There are plenty of MIDI files written especialy for the AWE soundcards. They usually come with a file called a SoundFont Bank with an file extension of .SBK or .SF2. Normaly you have to launch the AWE 32 Control Panel and load the SoundFont file into User Bank 1, then launch your MIDI player and play your song. In AWE MIDI Player you only have to load the song. The sounds are loaded automaticaly, so you do not need to worry about the AWE 32 Control anymore. If you don't have AWE32, then the player acts like a common midi player.

Supports:
  • Autoloading SoundFont banks
  • SoundFont 1 & 2 format
  • Playlists
  • Shows avaliable DRAM on card
  • Can hide in the taskbar tray.

    • The playlist view now supports
    repeating of the whole list.
    The songs with additional .sbk or .sf2 files have a little speaker icon
    and standard midi files have a little notes icon. I made all the graphics
    myself, I'm almost proud of it :-)
    Avaliable now is version 1.00.
    Things that I'm working on right now:

  • Nothing, maybe some other time...
    		• Other things that crossed my mind:

  • Patch caching.
  • Manual specification of .SBK files.
  • Multiple .SBK files for one song.
    • The AWE32 MIDI player is freeware. Please share with your friends.

    System requirements

  • A computer runing Windows 95/98/NT
  • A sound card. (AWE32 or AWE64 recomended).
  • Newest AWE32 / AWE64 drivers (for SoundFont 2 support).
