Help with looping MIDIs in Touhou 7
« on: January 18, 2014, 01:49:50 AM »
I have run into a problem while replacing the MIDIs in Touhou 7: They do not loop or do not loop correctly. I tried Controller #111, but that didn't work. I figured that ZUN probably had info inside the MIDI files that told it when to loop, and I'm not sure if I'm right. I look at the controllers and I just see a gigantic list of NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter Numbers). So I just want to know what controllers to use and how to use them.

EDIT: I have found a little bit about the MIDIs. The MIDIs ZUN uses are type 0, while the ones I use are type 1. Type 0 MIDIs only use 1 track and 16 channels, while Type 1 can use an infinite number of tracks and 16 channels. ZUN uses a whole lot of odd codes to make the MIDIs resemble Type 1 (considering there are multiple instruments playing at the same time) but are still type 0. If I could find a way to code the MIDIs into Type 0, I might be able to loop the MIDIs correctly.
