MIDI2MG(1)						      General Commands Manual							MIDI2MG(1)

NAME

       midi2mg - convert a midi file into midge(1) text format.

SYNOPSIS

       midi2mg [ options ] midi_file

DESCRIPTION

       midi2mg	reads  a midi file and writes its contents to a file in midge(1) text format. It prints a message to stdout for any midi events it
       can't handle.

OPTIONS

       -h or --help

	      Display help text.

       -v or --verbose

	      Print verbose messages to stdout.

       -q or --quiet

	      Quiet. No stdout.

       -o file or --outfile file

	      Write output to file. Otherwise converts file.mid to file.mg Outputs to stdout if file is `-'. When outputting to stdout quiet  mode
	      is automatically set unless verbose mode is set earlier on the command line.

       -w or --ignore-wrong-track

	      Ignore MIDI events on the wrong channel instead of exiting.

       -n i[,j...] or --include-tracks i[,j...]

	      Only convert the tracks in the comma separated list, with track numbers starting from 1.

       -N i[,j...] or --exclude-tracks i[,j...]

	      Convert all tracks except those specified in the comma separated list.

       -t n or --tuplet-factor n

	      An  additional  factor  for  files  with	odd note lengths, to prevent them being translated as decimals (n should be a prime number
	      greater than 3).

       -F or --no-factorise

	      Do not factorise time values (may help to decipher unusual tuplet values).

BUGS

       Does not correctly handle some text events.

       Does not handle SMTPE style tempo events.

       Does not handle changes of tempo/time_sig/key if these are on a separate tempo track.
