2021-10-31 Release

libMiniBAE

• Add versioning support
• Static executable binaries for Windows
• Windows: wave file AND audio device output
• Windows: DLL Library
• Linux ANSI API: wave file output only, no sound hardware support
• Switch default built-in patcheset to patches111 uncompressed
• Enable "Igor Feature" (untested)
• Code cleanup
• No mp3 support
• 32bit only, 64bit bit support not yet ready

playbae

• Includes updated libMiniBAE w/ versioning support
• added volume (-v) and time limit (-t) controls to playbae (time limit helps with 'infinite' midis)
• added reverb control (-rv, use -rl for a list)
• allow ctrl-c to exit gracefully (and finish processing wav so no more empty wav)
• add buffer calculation for linux ANSI
• add -mv flag to limit max voices
• add -2p flag to switch to 2-point interpolation
• add -h flag for help
• use libMiniBAE embedded patchset if no patchset specified
• add -f flag with automatic file type detection
• add -mc flag for muting midi channels (1 based, comma seperated, eg -mc 1,10,16)
• debugging disabled by default, much quieter
• Can still get Song Info debug with -d
• Silent mode added (-q) (try pairing with -o /dev/stdout for piping, experimental)
• Gracefully exit on many errors instead of segfaulting
• CTRL-C also now gracefully exits, permitting finishing up of wavout
• Added copyright notice as per license requirement
• If first argument not a flag, assume its a path (can now drag and drop midis onto playbae binary (tested on Windows))
  • eg ./playbae world1.mid -p minibae-wtv.hsb -mc 1 -o world1.wav
  • piggybacks off the -f media detection

known issues

• WASM Build
  • Built-in patches do not work in emscripten/WASM build (workaround: provide patches with data-minibae-patches="url/to/patches.hsb")
  • Providing an 'infinite midi' (midi with infinite looping, eg DialingWebTV.mid or some ringtones) to the WASM build will result in a very, very bad time. Don't do it.
