foobar2000

MIDI Player

By: pqyt

foo_midi is a foobar2000 component that adds playback of MIDI files to foobar2000.
It is based on MIDI Player by kode54.

Features
  • Decodes General MIDI files (.MID, .MIDI, .RMI, .KAR) and several MIDI based formats. (.MIDS, .MDS, .HMI, .HMP, .MUS, .XMI, .LDS).
  • Supports several synthesizers, several of which do not require any additional files to play back music. The bundled synthesizers which do not require additional files may sound rather basic, though.
  • Supports FluidSynth SoundFont (.sf2) based synthesizer, including support for the newer compressed format. (.sf3). SoundFonts may be loaded in a simple, or even complex setup, using either basic .sflist text files encoded in UTF-8 format, but for now, it only supports a bare list of files.
  • Supports 32 and 64-bit VST instruments.
  • Supports dark mode.
Requirements
  • Tested with Microsoft Windows 10 or later.
  • foobar2000 v2.0 or later (32 or 64-bit version).

Current version: 2.15.1.0, released on 2024-09-18

Change log:

  • Fixed: The selected player now only gets overriden to BASSMIDI/FluidSynth when an embedded soundfont or a soundfont is found with the same basename as the MIDI file.
  • Fixed: The BASS MIDI Resampling combo box was not always enabled correctly when switching player types.

Supported processor architectures: x86 32-bit, x86 64-bit.
