You can select +a particular time interval, particular channels, and particular tracks +or any combinations. If one or both of the run time parameters \-from or \-to +are included, the program returns the playing time in seconds of the +output file. Midicopy was developed by Seymour Shlien from the +midifilelib distribution available from +.IR http://www.harmony-central.com/MIDI/midifilelib.tar.gz . +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B -ver +prints version number and then exits +.TP +.B -trks n1,n2, etc +Selects the tracks to be copied where the track numbers start +from 1. If more than one track is specified, they should be separated by +commas. You should always copy track 1 since by convention it contains +information pertinent to all the other tracks. By default all tracks +are copied unless you specify particular tracks using this run time +parameter. +.TP +.B -xtrks n1,n2, etc +Lists the tracks to exclude from copying. All other tracks are copied. +This option does not work in combination with \-trks. +.TP +.B -xchns n1,n2, etc +Lists the channels to exclude from copying. All other channels are copied. +This option does not work in combination with \-chns. +.TP +.B -chns n +Like above, it specifies the MIDI channels to be copied. By default +all channels are copied. Channel numbers also start from 1. +.TP +.B -from n +The program will copy all MIDI commands starting from midi pulse +number n. By default it will start from time zero or the beginning +of the MIDI file. +.TP +.B -to n +Stops copying all events after midi pulse number n. By default +the file is copied to the end. +.TP +.B -frombeat n +The program will copy all MIDI commands starting from quarter beat +number n. By default it will start from time zero or the beginning +of the MIDI file. +.TP +.B -tobeat n +Stops copying all events after quarter beat number n. By default +the file is copied to the end. +.TP +.B -fromsec n +The program will copy all MIDI commands starting from time n +in seconds. +.TP +.B -tosec n +Stops copying all events after time n in seconds. These two +options (\-fromsec and \-tosec) do not work accurately if the +MIDI file has more than one tempo command. Only the first +one is used for converting seconds into MIDI pulse units. +It is therefore preferable to use the \-from and \-to options. +.TP +.B -replace trk,loc,val +This option should be used alone. Midicopy will copy the entire +file verbatim except it will replace a byte by val, where the +byte is located in the specified track (trk) and specified position +(loc). Commonly this function is used for changing a particular +MIDI program number (instrument) associated with a channel. +You need to know the byte count in the track of that parameter +in order to use this function, +.TP +.B -tempo quarter notes/minute +All tempo indications in the midi file will be replaced with +the above value. +.TP +.B -speed factor +All tempo indications in the midi file will be multiplied with +this factor. Values greater than 1.0 will speed up the music while +lower values slow the music. The factor is a floating point value. +.TP +.B -drumfocus drum-code excluded_drum_velocities +The selected drum line (specified by the drum-code pitch value) is +highlighted by reducing the loudness of all other drum lines to +the excluded_drum_velocities value. The drum-code value must +be in the range of 35 to 81 inclusive. +.TP +.B -mutenodrum [level] +All channels which are not 9 (drum channel) are attenuated to the +given level. If level is not specified, it is assumed to be zero. +.TP +.B -setdrumloudness n m +where n is between 35 to 81 inclusive and m is the loudness between +0 and 127. The loudness of all instances of drum n are changed +to m. +.TP +.B -focusontrack n1,n2,... +The velocities of notes in all tracks except n are attenuated. +.TP +.B -focusonchannel n1,n2,... +The velocities of notes in all channels except n are attenuated. +.TP +.B -attenuation n +Specifies the amount the note velocities are reduced by either +-focusontracks or -focusonchannels. Current default is 70. +.TP +.B -nobends +Suppresses all channel pitchbend commands. +.TP +.B -indrums n1,n2,... +Only allow percussions with codes n1,n2,... +.TP +.B -xdrums n1,n2,... +Exclude the percussions with codes n1,n2,... +.TP +.B -onlydrums +Only copy the percussion channel. +.TP +.B -nodrums +Copy all channels except the percussion channel. + +.SH EXAMPLE +.B midicopy.exe -trks 1,5 -from 2669 -to 8634 uzicko.mid fragment.mid +Midicopy will copy tracks 1 and 5 starting from midi pulse position +2669 and ending at MIDI pulse position 8634. + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.PP +.IR abcmtex "(1), " abc2abc "(1), " abc2midi "(1), " midi2abc "(1) ", yaps "(1)" +.SH AUTHOR +This manual page was written by Seymour Shlien. +.SH VERSION +This man page describes midicopy version 1.33 from December 22 2019. |
