WHAT IS IT? - a teeny weeny itty bitty midi sequencer available for FREE !!!
This is a little MIDI sequencer named "Ditty".
(Get it? Midi? Ditty? Itty Bitty? Ok, Nevermind! Sheesh!)
A sequencer is a program that:
- listens to midi keyboards and controllers for note and control messages
- loads midi files and -sequences- their notes with the live playing you do
- plays the whole mess out to a set of midi synthesizers
- shows the whole mess in a cool note/drum/controller display on screen
- saves the whole mess into a midi song file for later
Ditty is built SMALL:
- SMALL .exe size
- runs FAST (built in C++ on Win32 API)
- SIMPLE user interface built with minimalism in mind.
There are lots of MIDI sequencers out there.
I don't consider any of them well adjusted though.
So I'm building one that IS! Perhaps you have some ideas too?

REQUIREMENTS?
- Windows PC
- midi keyboard (and assoc'd midi interface on your pc)
or you can TRY to make do with pc keyboard note entry - but come ON...

Ditty is built to totally integrate with Creative Soundblaster Live/Audigy.
They're high quality, CHEAP, zero latency "synth-on-a-card"s

NEW RELEASES:
Over time, I'll update the Ditty set of programs.
Developing software takes time, and my kids have priority, so bear with me.
Read what I did and
plan to do.
Check my website monthly (approximately) for new releases.
Please email me with "bugs to fix" detailed and "good ideas" to add.
