编写MIDI 音乐(MIDI music)仍然是一件事,因此开发人员为此创建多个程序是有意义的。现在,找到合适的工具并非易事,因为它需要大量时间。考虑到这一点,请尝试通过测试一个名为PianoRollComposer的工具来提供帮助。这是一个考虑到MIDI创建的应用程序,所以如果这是你的事,我们建议继续阅读,因为它还不错。
用户会注意到的第一件事是了解正在发生的事情是多么容易。人们添加音符和创作自己的音乐应该没有问题,但随着时间的推移,它会变得有点烦人。事情是这样的,创建一个短曲根本没有问题,但是当涉及到为更长的东西添加更多音符时,Piano Roll Composer开始做一些奇怪的事情。
(Compose MIDI)使用PianoRollComposer(PianoRollComposer)创作 MIDI音乐
下载程序时,用户首先会注意到它的大小。32位版本远低于1MB;因此,即使是最慢的互联网连接也应该是零问题。
1]用户界面
好的,所以用户界面平淡无奇,这可能是件好事。在创作音乐时,我们怀疑作曲家是否对眼前有很多分散注意力的事物太感兴趣,所以这很好。
所有按键都在屏幕上可用,而其他功能和设置可以在最顶部看到。
2] 创建 MIDI 曲调
创作你的第一首曲子并不难,即使你是一个没有经验的业余爱好者。对于业余爱好者来说,音乐可能会很糟糕,但它仍然会存在。
如前所述,创建很简单。只需(Just)单击屏幕上的任何键即可开始。最好在继续之前对密钥有深入的了解。我们没有,所以这是一个随机的混乱,最终结果非常糟糕。

3]添加虚拟键盘
有些人可能需要虚拟键盘才能开始使用,很高兴PianoRollComposer使这成为可能。只需(Just)单击虚拟键盘(Virtual Keyboard)选项卡,就会立即出现一个。
单击虚拟键将使您了解在推进之前听起来会是什么样子。此外(Furthermore),对于那些想要分配工具的人,可以通过单击同名选项来完成。
就键盘而言,这里没什么好说的,所以我们继续前进。
4]乐器和动态效果
使用这些选项,您将能够更改乐器和动态效果的工作方式。
您会看到,当用户单击Instruments选项卡时,他们会看到一个小窗口,其中包含更改活动通道和仪器的选项。从我们的角度来看,这非常简单。因此(Therefore),用户应该不难理解它。
更不用说,用户可以创建自己的乐器文件,并使用“文件(File)”选项卡下的插件选项将其导入到他们的音乐中。
当涉及到动态效果时,它是一项功能,使创作者能够将效果添加到他们的MIDI音乐中。这对于认真对待音乐创作的人来说非常重要。
完成后,只需点击“文件(File)”选项卡,然后单击“保存(Save)”即可完成音乐创作。

PianoRollComposer lets you compose MIDI music easily
Comрosing MIDI music is still a thing, so it makes sense for developers to create several programs for doing so. Now, finding the right tool is no easy task because it requires a lot of time. With that in mind, well try to help by testing a tool known as PianoRollComposer. This is an app designed with MIDI creation in mind, so if that’s your thing, we suggest to continue reading along because it’s not bad.
The first thing users will notice is how easy it is to understand what’s going on. Folks should have no problems adding notes and creating their own music, but as time goes by, it gets a bit annoying. Here’s the thing, creating a short tune is no problem at all, but when it comes down to adding more notes for something longer, Piano Roll Composer begins to do weird things.
Compose MIDI music with PianoRollComposer
When downloading the program, users will notice the first thing of how small the size is. The 32bit version is well under 1MB; therefore, even the slowest of internet connections should have zero problems.
1] User interface
OK, so the user interface is bland, and that may be a good thing. When creating music, we doubt composers are too interested in having a lot of distraction before their eyes, so this is good.
All keys are available on the screen, while other features and settings can be seen at the very top.
2] Creating MIDI tunes
It’s not difficult to create your first tune, even if you’re an amateur with no previous experience. The music will likely turn out badly for amateurs, but it’ll be there nonetheless.
So as stated, creating is simple. Just click any of the keys on the screen to get going. It would be best to have deep knowledge of the keys before going forward. We didn’t, so it was a random mess that turned out very badly in the end.
Check below the article for our finished product.
3] Adding a virtual keyboard
Some might require the need for a virtual keyboard to get started, and gladly, PianoRollComposer makes this a possibility. Just click on the Virtual Keyboard tab, and one should appear right away.
Clicking on the virtual keys will give you an idea of what things will sound like before pushing forward. Furthermore, for those who want to assign instruments, this can be done by clicking on the option of the same name.
There’s not much to say here in terms of the keyboard, so we’re moving on.
4] Instruments and Dynamic Effects
With these options, you’ll have the ability to change how instruments and dynamic effects work.
You see, when the user clicks on the Instruments tab, they’ll see a small window with the option to change active channels and instruments. It’s pretty straightforward from our point of view. Therefore, users shouldn’t have a hard time understanding it.
Not to mention, users can create their own instruments file, and use the plug-in option from under the File tab to import it into their music.
When it comes down to dynamic effects, then, it’s a feature that enables the creator to add effects to their MIDI music. This is very important for anyone who takes music creation seriously.
Once you’re done, just hit the File tab, then click Save to complete your music creation.
