Node version

[og2t]

Hi! Which node.js version are you using? I am getting this error message:

Uncaught Error: The module '/Users/tomek.augustyn/Repos/pianoboi/node_modules/midi/build/Release/midi.node'
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 67. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 64. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
the module (for instance, using `npm rebuild` or `npm install`).

I'll try to reproduce this when I get home, but did you try re-compiling the module, as the error suggests? npm rebuild midi --update-binary

Got it working but it shows this when it runs (no errors though). How can I open a midi file?

Upgraded this project to compile with Node v12.4.0

@og2t Your issue is likely caused by no midi inputs, e.g., a MIDI keyboard. I need to add functionality to manage inputs.

I haven't implemented anything to read in files directly. You could setup a virtual MIDI bus to achieve this with Pianoboi. The problem with files is they usually have lots of channels, which then requires a way to filter/ combine them. I'd go for a more full-fledged MIDI app if this is your intended purpose.

@og2t Actually, had a look at a few libraries. This actually seems quite easy. If you send me a link to your midi file(s) I can test with these.
