WildMidi_SetOption(3)

✨ WildMidi_SetOption ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the WildMidi Programmer's Manual 💖 this one's called WildMidi_SetOption(3) and it's literally your little remote control for vibes per midi file. let's get into it 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

WildMidi_SetOption — set a library option for a specific midi 💅

---

🦋 LIBRARY 🦋

libWildMidi

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <wildmidi_lib.h>

int WildMidi_SetOption (midi *handle, uint16_t options, uint16_t setting)

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so like, the whole point: set a library option for a specific midi. one midi. your midi. main character energy only for that handle 🫶

• handle — the identifier you got from opening a midi file with WildMidi_Open(3) or WildMidi_OpenBuffer(3). that's your lil backstage pass 🎟️
• options — the option (or options, plural, we love a combo) you wish to change. here's the menu, no cap:
  • WM_MO_LOG_VOLUME — by default the library uses linear volume levels typically used in computer MIDI players. these can differ somewhat to volume levels found on some midi hardware, which may use a volume curve based on decibels. this option sets the volume levels to what you'd expect on such devices. it's giving "hardware girlie" 🔊
  • WM_MO_ENHANCED_RESAMPLING — by default libWildMidi uses linear interpolation for the resampling of the sound samples. setting this option enables the library to use a resampling method that attempts to fill in the gaps, giving richer sound. the way that it just… fills the gaps 😭 so iconic
  • WM_MO_REVERB — libWildMidi has an 8 reflection reverb engine. use this option to give more depth to the output. 8 reflections?? she's doing cardio 💀✨
  • WM_MO_LOOP — makes libWildMidi automatically rewind when it reaches the end, so the file would play in continuous loop. infinite loop, infinite slay 🔁
  • WM_MO_STRIPSILENCE — strips silence at song start. no more awkward intro pause bestie 🙈
  • WM_MO_SAVEASTYPE0 — this option tells WildMidi_GetMidiOutput(3) to output type-0 format data for type-2 files. glow-up conversion fr fr
  • WM_MO_TEXTASLYRIC — some files have the lyrics in the text meta event. this option reads lyrics from there instead. scavenging the lyrics from the text event, we love a resourceful queen 🎤
• setting — to turn on an option, repeat that option here. to turn off an option, do not put the option here. that's the whole bit 💅

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

Example: to turn on Reverb

WildMidi_SetOption(handle, WM_MO_REVERB, WM_MO_REVERB);

Example: to turn off Reverb

WildMidi_SetOption(handle, WM_MO_REVERB, 0);

Example: to turn on Reverb and Enhanced Resampling

WildMidi_SetOption(handle, (WM_MO_REVERB |
WM_MO_ENHANCED_RESAMPLING), (WM_MO_REVERB |
WM_MO_ENHANCED_RESAMPLING));

⚠️ bestie, note that the options and the setting have to match up. if you list an option in options, you gotta repeat it in setting to actually turn it on. zero means off. don't get it twisted 🙏

---

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

returns -1 on error, otherwise returns 0. simple as. slay ✅
