Howdy,

We do not host files for guitar tablature. You may find some websites of interest for guitar in our MIDI directory, on the guitar page at http://www.notation.com/MIDI-Guitar.php. These sites primarily host MIDI files, but some do have tablature files, or links to other sites that have TAB.

I hope this is helpful!

ttfn,
Sherry

Howdy Vishal,

I don't use MIDI OX myself, but there are a few folks around who do. David Jacklin is one, but I know he's pretty busy right now with a production. He'll probably be coming back up for air in a week or so.

ttfn,
Sherry

Hello Vishal,

How is it that you need realtime micro-pitch tuning of notes?

Note, with Composer you can do real-time punch-in recording of pitch bend. That works only if you're using a MIDI device that has no significant sound delay.

Real-time punch-in recording of pitch bend is explained somewhere deep in the Composer User Guide, if I remember correctly. If you try it, you might be the first user to ever have tried it besides myself many years ago. (Some Composer features just never get used.) Please let us know if punch-in pitch bend recording works.

Cheers
-- Mark

Hi, Vishal:

Offhand, I don't see that MidiOx has any specific method of dealing with microtuning. However, using the power of midi Control Change messages and Registered Parameter Numbers, you can work around it:

Check out http://www.midi.org/about-midi/table3.shtml

At the bottom, it has some examples of how to set up a midi system exclusive message to handle channel fine and coarse tuning.

MidiOx, of course, has the ability to handle sysex quite well.

Some experimenting should show you if that's going to work for you.

Good luck.

David (taking a deep breath before diving back into his production: our video projector has packed it in this morning and doesn't look fixable.)

P.S. Happy Canada Day a tout la monde! (Anybody south of the 49th Parallel can substitute Happy Fourth of July!)

Hello DJ, Markwa, Sherry,
Thanks for your response.
Well, for playing Old Indian Scales, i need to write a converter for real time Pitching of notes so that i can use any Midi Keyboard to play the Old Indian Scales.

One of my friend's father has developed a hardware instrument for this and now i want to find what can be done digitally.

Please visit http://www.22shrutiharmonium.com/ for more information.

I know that are Midi softwares like www.justonic.com for this purpose however i wanted to write something very simple in MIDI of my own.

Seems that will have to experiment with Midi Ox a lot :-(. I dont know.

I visited the link http://www.midi.org/about-midi/table3.shtml that you gave. It talks about RPN values for channel fine tuning and coarse tuning. Seems it wont work for individual note tuning. Because my requirement is not for the whole channel. Its for individual note.

Thanks,
vishal.

Hello Vishal,

MIDI pitch bend adjustments apply to all of the notes assigned to a MIDI channel. This is the MIDI specification.

You can work around that MIDI limitation by assigning voices to separate channels, where each voice only "sings" one note at any given time.

Cheers

Hi, Vishal:

There are a number of soft synths (VSTi, DXi or other) that can handle variable scaling.

If you search the Shareware Music Machine (http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/) you might come up with a free one.

David

Howdy Eddy,

If you're looking for a specific tune, you can try using some of the MIDI-specific search engines we list at http://www.notation.com/MIDI-Search.php

We also have a directory of the best MIDI-hosting sites we have found on the internet, categorized by genre, composer, and instrument. You can find the directory at http://www.notation.com/MidiFiles.php?parent=Download and peruse the site listings, and perhaps find your tune that way.

If you happen to find a good site that we don't have listed, let us know so we can include it :-)

ttfn,
Sherry
