MIDI files produced by M-Live from August 2010 have the complete set of meta
events.
Optimizing pre-August 2010 M-Live MIDI files for Merish
It is advisable to process the MIDI format files produced by M-Live (MIDI standard,
MF3, MF4, MF5) purchased before August 2010 with
, the
software provided.
The software is very intuitive and is able to establish by itself what work to carry out on the
single M-Live MIDI files, automatically integrating any meta events (including markers)
missing from the files.
Even M-Live files purchased many years ago can thus be fully imported to Merish and used
with functions at the maximum.
Files produced by third parties
Merish is also able to play back MIDI standard files produced by third parties.
Nevertheless, the musical contents and extra features (lyrics, markers, etc.) depend
entirely on the respective producers.
In the majority of the cases,
is able to chase
Title, Artist and
Genre meta events in these files too and, anyway, enables to add them manually.
Formats & Compatibility
Merish is compatible with
KAR and MID standard files (0 and
1) and all formats of MIDI and audio files produced by M-Live:
MIDI standard, MF3, MF4, MF5 e MP3 karaoke, i.e. it is
normally able to play them as they are.
Merish and meta events
Merish makes massive use of meta
events such as Marker, Full Title,
Performing Artist and Genre.
Merish also handles songs with no meta
events, but to take advantage of all its
functions advanced, these data must be
included in the files.
