Overview
What is Midget?
Midget 3.5 is a MIDI music program for Windows 9x/2000/XP.The interface of Midget is based on the kind found in "trackers" (eg: Impulse Tracker / ScreamTracker), where notes are represented on-screen by their name, octave and velocity (eg: C#4 99 specifies a C sharp note in the 4th octave, at velocity 99.)It is very different from most "common" music programs, in that music isn't edited using a score-based interface or a piano roll.
In depth
A closer look at Midget
Some new users may find the interface quite daunting, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to work quickly.I chose to use the tracker-style interface because it allows users to enter notes, and then instantly change them using the computer keyboard. If you have an external MIDI device, you can use that for recording or playback too. Certain MIDI input events can be filtered out, and you can select instruments by sending the appropriate bank and patch changes from the external device.
