EIGMGS General MIDI/GS Synthesizers Editor/Interface


EIGMGS V 1.1 is a MS-DOS shareware programme that performs the
functions of editor and interface to synthesizers General MIDI
and GS (Roland SC-55) compatible.

Through the adoption of a well structured graphical interface 
(640x480 pixels, 16 colours at user's choice) and the intuitive
logic design, the programme shows great simplicity in all its
operations.

It allows, as editor, easily changing of all sound parameters
(volume, pan, chorus...) of musical instruments and voices
generated by the synthesizers; all the parameters can be stored
and transmitted later to the sound module by pressing only one
key of the computer keyboard.

As interface the programme elaborates the MIDI data coming from
a MIDI instrument and send them to the synthesizer.
This modality makes it possible the repetition of a group of notes
on a specified channel (mandolin, banjo effect, ...).

Hardware/Software requirements:
- PC IBM compatible;
- microprocessor from 80386;
- minimum conventional memory amount 430 KBytes;
- MIDI interface MPU-401 or compatible;
- VGA (S-VGA);
- two buttons mouse;
- MS-DOS from 5.0.

Before registering the program does not allow user to save
the file he worked on. To register send the author a sum of 15 US$, 
then the user will receive information on save enabling.

Some possible applications:
- Playing the new synthesizers by MIDI keyboards and/or pianos;
- Generation of new sound effects, generally absents, as those
  produced by the repetition of notes and voices;
- Easy access to all voices sound parameters (particularly GS)
  to generate new instrumental sounds;
- Quick changing, by pressing only one key, of synth configuration
  from a set of 20 available on line.
