About The MusicWeaver:
Graphic-Diagram MIDI Stream Arranger. Combine small elements to do custom processing of MIDI

The MusicWeaver is essentially a way to a 'morph' MIDI streams. It comprises a suite of small modules, instances of which can be connected together in a 'diagram' to perform operations on MIDI events. It is mostly intended to enhance live performance (with added voices, delays, quick patch change and so on). It is also capable of recording and playing back MIDI sequences, and playing -- or playing with -- prerecorded midifiles. Newer modules allow displaying various features of the music stream.

Shareware registration no longer required (but contributions gladly accepted!) [I have deleted older archives from BeBits, because things looked to be getting confusing. Various older versions are still available on my Web page.]

Details about this version:
This version was actually released in 2007, but it is now rebuilt so that it now at least runs under Haiku (but not nicely -- most of the panels are munged). It will be worked on...

The following is from 2007:

The main enhancements this time are actually to StreamWeaver components. I have been using Jens Kilians old port of Csound a lot recently, and it turn out to be very convenient to run it as part of a MusicWeaver configuration, as a command in a PipeStream element. The old PipeStream necessarily buffers its piped output, which stops one seeing Csound messages as delivered. I was able to learn from Jens CsoundShell code to build a PTY version that has proper real time output. I also wanted to be able to load text (for Csound parameter input) into a StreamView at startup, hence GetFile.

There are a couple of fixes, to the RePlay and DeGlitch modules, and improvements to Transpose, SysExGen, and Notator. Transpose now can be told not to transpose the drum channel(!), SysExGen will compute checksums, and Notator has better display, including the occasional double-sharp.
