It's a MIDI-player based on emulator of a Frequency Modulation chip Yamaha OPN2 (YM2612). This small MIDI-player made with using of libOPNMIDI library.

Key features

• OPN2 emulation
• Customizable bank of FM patches (You have to use the bank editor to create own sound bank)
• Stereo sound
• Number of simulated OPN2 chips can be specified as 1-100 (maximum channels 600!)
• Pan (binary panning, i.e. left/right side on/off)
• Pitch-bender with adjustable range
• Vibrato that responds to RPN/NRPN parameters
• Sustain (a.k.a. Pedal hold) and Sostenuto enable/disable

• Support for multiple concurrent MIDI synthesizers (per-track device/port select FF 09 message), can be used to overcome 16 channel limit
• Partial support for GS and XG standards (having more instruments than in one 128:128 GM set and ability to use multiple channels for percussion purposes, and a support for some GS/XG exclusive controllers)
• CC74 "Brightness" affects a modulator scale (to simulate frequency cut-off on WT synths)
