No way to have Percussion Instruments in Midi Export #48

Description

@linux-leo

In GM standard MIDI files, channel 10 is reserved for percussion instruments only. To play percussion instruments on various hardware devices like the Roland SC-55, one must therefore play them on midi channel 10. There is no way to configure a track such that it will play on midi channel 10 in the midi export, like mentioned in pull request #40, here are three suggestions on how to solve this, pick the one you prefer:

  • play tracks on channel 10 if they're set as a drum track
  • Auto assign tracks to channels except when the track specifies to be played on channel 10
  • Don't auto assign tracks and play them on the same channels in the midi export as during live playback. (the channels specified in the tracks themselves)
