Sync fretboard to MIDI

[Anthony Morris]

We need the fretboard/notes to sync to the MIDI file so it feels like you're really playing.

• Separate fretboard notes into separate "strings" #10
• Create a generic method of feeding an input of notes into the fretboard rendering #11
• Hook up MIDI output to fretboard notes #12
• Investigate how to stream buffer of MIDI (or pre-buffer it all) while also playing back audio files in sync #13

  • Parsing MIDI and making notes time based?
• https://github.com/YatingMusic/miditoolkit
  • I feel like this might come in handy or some of the projects under Philosophy
  • Has visualization tools which can be used directly or for inspiration

In the first link, that's really interesting that they computed note duration.

The other libraries are good finds as well. Good to know others use different timing methods.
