# MIDI Util Examples
|
|
|
|
Working examples created from the [MIDIUtil](https://github.com/MarkCWirt/MIDIUtil) source repo patterns.
|
|
All examples use MIDIUtil with beats-based (not ticks-based) time, the cleanest API for MIDI composition.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip3 install --break-system-packages MIDIUtil
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y fluidsynth fluid-soundfont-gm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
