===== Playing a midi on a webpage! =====

==== Melon's Mini Music Player! ====

Melon created a little premade scrip that played midi's, if you just want a simple copy-paste solution, [[https://forum.melonland.net/index.php?topic=1235.msg10638#msg10638|have a look here]]!

==== Midi JS ====

Often you'll want to convert the midi to a compressed mp3 using your preferred instrument set: a great free program is GSXCC, this is a program that emulates a Famicom (NES) or SCC sound chip in order to play MIDIs. It can make any MIDI file into chiptunes! You can [[https://meme.institute/gxscc/|download it here]]!

You can also embed midis directly into a browser using [[https://www.midijs.net/|MIDIjs]]:

**Include the MIDIjs script on your web page (put this in the head)**. You can download the script to your site or use this hotlink:
<code>
<script src="https://www.midijs.net/lib/midi.js"></script>
</code>

==== Now you can play midis on your site using these JavaScript commands! ====

**Play or stop the MIDI file**. You can use the MIDIjs.play() and MIDIjs.stop() functions to play or stop the MIDI file. For example, you can use this code to play the MIDI file:
<code>
MIDIjs.play("song.mid");
</code>
And this code to stop the MIDI file:
<code>
MIDIjs.stop();
</code>
