Public Member Functions
	MidiEvent (number timestamp, int channel, int status, int byte1, int byte2)
	creates a MidiEvent.

Public Attributes
int	byte1
	MIDI byte 1 in range [0;127].
int	byte2
	MIDI byte 2 in range [0;127].
int	channel
	MIDI channel in range [0;15].
int	type
	MIDI event type (Event.NoteOn | Event.NoteOff | Event.ControlChange | Event.ProgramChange | Event.PitchBend | Event.AfterTouch | Event.PolyAfterTouch)
int	status
	alias for type: writing it sets the event type, leaving the channel untouched
number	timestamp
	event timestamp in midi ticks, resolution is given by the MidiSequence's division (read-only).

Detailed Description

A Midi Event.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MidiEvent()

MidiEvent::MidiEvent	(	number	timestamp,
		int	channel,
		int	status,
		int	byte1,
		int	byte2 )

creates a MidiEvent.

Note the argument order: the channel comes before the event type.

local noteOn = uvi.MidiEvent(0, 0, Event.NoteOn, 60, 100) -- channel 0, note 60, velocity 100

Note

Two channel conventions coexist. The event tables handled by callbacks and postEvent() use 1-based channels in [1;16]; in a table passed to postEvent(), channel = 0 is also accepted and means omni (same as omitting the field). MidiEvent objects (postMidiEvent(), MidiSequence) carry the raw MIDI channel, 0-based in [0;15]. Channel 1 in an event table and channel 0 in a MidiEvent designate the same MIDI channel.

Parameters

timestamp	event timestamp in midi ticks
channel	MIDI channel in range [0;15]
status	MIDI status (Event.NoteOn | Event.NoteOff | Event.ControlChange | Event.ProgramChange | Event.PitchBend | Event.AfterTouch | Event.PolyAfterTouch)
byte1	MIDI byte 1 in range [0;127]
byte2	MIDI byte 2 in range [0;127]
