MiniDexedLibrarian

This project's target is to produce a librarian/editor for MiniDexed - 8x Dexed on bare metal Raspberry Pi.

As a side-effect, it can also be used as a librarian for Yamaha DX7/TX816.

MiniDexed Control Center

The project binaries will be distributed under the name MiniDexed Control Center

Working:

open/combine/save DX7 SysEx bulk dumps (Voice banks)
open/edit/save MiniDexed performance.ini files
open/edit/save MiniDexed minidexed.ini configuration files
sending voice bulk dumps (banks) to Dexed (not to MiniDexed)
sending single voices
save/open current state on closing/opening the app
organize SysEx and performance files on MiniDexed SD Card
store collections to SQL-DB (eliminating duplicates etc.)
import DX7II supplement (ACED/AMEM) and performances (PMEM)

ToDo:

send SysEx bulk dumps to MiniDexed (Feature missing in MiniDexed)
edit DX7 voices (Not a priority. There are a lot of DX7-Editors on the net)
conversion of various 4OP voice files to DX7 format (Low priority. Alternative: DXconvert from http://dxconvert.martintarenskeen.nl/ )

Linux Qt5: MDCC_Lin_Qt5

Windows 10: MDCC_Win

FreeBSD 13:

OSX (Darwin): MDCC_OSX

Dependencies

Windows 64 - SQLite3 (dll included in download)

Linux Qt5 - Libc6, sqlite3, portmidi, libQt5Pas

Linux GTK2 - Libc6, sqlite3, portmidi

FreeBSD - Libc6, sqlite3, portmidi, Qt5Pas and optional alsa_seq_server to access MIDI ports.

Compiling

Developed by using Lazarus/Freepascal.

External components needed to build the MiniDexed Control Center are available through Lazarus OPM (Online Package Manager):

ATShapeLine
EyeCandyControls
HashLib4Pascal
IndustrialStuff

Linux notes

libQt5pas distributed with Ubuntu and derivates is know to cause problems.

Please use the builds from David Bannon: https://github.com/davidbannon/libqt5pas/releases

For Linux on 64-bit PC, you'll need libqt5pas1_2.11-1_amd64.deb

Windows notes

On Windows, the PortMidi library is not used. I did't found any working 64-bit version of portmidi.dll on the internet. It means, MIDI on Windows is accessed through native Windows' MultiMedia System (MMSYSTEM).
