View 2 RepliesThere is this software called Harping midi. You can view it here [URL] I would very much like to recreate this software but extend on it. For example. I would like to be able to pick up the "midi notes" and then translate that to guitar tabs. I would like it to have the same features (channel filters, tempo control) those sort of things. Where would I start???
View 1 Repliesi am wondering if it is possible to make a program with visual basic that records from the microphone, then converts it into a midi file.
View 2 RepliesI've encountered problems with programming a Guitar Hero game (Frets on Fire) because I just started visual basic, but I know a lot still. I am almost done with button pressing and picking and I can easily get the buttons to scroll, but is there a way to program the buttons that scroll along the screen by using a midi file, like in Frets on Fire. I just don't know how I can get the frets (buttons) to correspond with the song without spending hours programming one song by hand.

View 3 RepliesI'm putting together a user control that I want to have some animation in (it shows a pump running) and was able to cobble together a nice animated GIF with Photoshop:When I pop it onto a PictureBox in my control, it animates and looks really good.The problem I have, is I want to be able to change the color-palette information in the image to adjust the hue.Thus, when the user chooses "Color.Red", the image is altered so the dark blue in the image becomes Color.Red and the other colors are adjusted accordingly.
The color math I got no problem with, my problem is, how do you change the color information of an animated gif image without ruining it?I can't just convert it to a bitmap or I loose the animation. It has a single, universal color palette so it shouldn't be too hard.Pre-rendered GIFs aren't an option since these pumps pump colored liquid, I want the user to be able to set them on the fly.
How can I make the picturebox animate gif files?
Like, I have an image that has a few frames of animation, but the picturebox only shows the first frame, how can i make it continually loop the gif?
how to graphically show an analog needle moving similar to an old analog meter. I have the picture of the meter I created in paint brush. What I need to know if possible is how do I show the needle moving to a certain value. Basically one end of the needle will be fixed in the middle bottom of the picture and it would move accordingly at a certain angle to my calculations of a certain process.
View 11 RepliesI have a form positioned slightly above the taskbar/system tray in the bottom right corner of my desktop window.It's sort of like a pop-up notification.The notification itself looks great,but there's a button on it which resizes the form up, animating the sizing in increments of 5px whilst keeping it's position relative to the bottom-right corner of the screen.
The problem with this is that it doesn't look very smooth. Adjusting Me.Width resizes from the left so you have to then move the form to the left with Me.Left to compensate. Me. SetBounds just seems to be a wrapper for setting those properties anyway.Is there anything I can do to have the form smoothly (or at least appear to) resize outwards from the left of the form?

Is it possible to convert MIDI files (.midi or .mid) into a .wav or .wma file in Visual Basic.NET (2010)? If so:
1: How would this be done?
2: If the output format can be .wma, how can one write the tags (such as artist, album, etc.) to the file in VB.NET?
I am saying .wav or .wma because I know that Microsoft does not have any rights to the MP3 file or something like that.

View 10 RepliesI'm using vb.net and have got the midi out functions working properly. I'm now looking to add midi in functionality to my project and I am confused about the use / syntax of MidiInOpen and the associated midiInProc placeholder function.
