You can use Topos to play MIDI thanks to the [WebMIDI API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_MIDI_API). You can currently send notes, control change, program change and so on. You can also send a MIDI Clock to your MIDI devices or favorite DAW. Note that Topos is also capable of playing MIDI using **Ziffers** which provides a better syntax for melodic expression.

## Notes
|
||||
- <icode>note(note: number, options: {})</icode>: send a MIDI Note. This function can take an object as a second argument to specify the MIDI channel, velocity, etc... (_e.g._ <icode>note(60, {channel: 1, velocity: 127})</icode>).
|
||||
|
||||
\`\`\`javascript
|
||||
bpm(80) // Setting a default BPM
|
||||
mod(24) && note(36 + seqbeat(0,12), {duration: 0.02})
|
||||
mod(12) && note(pick(64, 76), {duration: 0.05})
|
||||
mod(36) && note(seqbeat(64, 67, 69), {duration: 0.05})
|
||||
sometimes() && mod(12) && note(seqbeat(64, 67, 69) + 24, {duration: 0.5})

|
||||
## Control and Program Changes
|
||||
|
||||
- <icode>control_change({control: number, value: number, channel: number})</icode>: send a MIDI Control Change. This function takes a single object argument to specify the control message (_e.g._ <icode>control_change({control: 1, value: 127, channel: 1})</icode>).
|
||||
|
||||
\`\`\`javascript
|
||||
control_change({control: pick(24,25), value: rI(1,120), channel: 1}))})
|
||||
control_change({control: pick(30,35), value: rI(1,120) / 2, channel: 1}))})
|
||||
\`\`\`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- <icode>program_change(program: number, channel: number)</icode>: send a MIDI Program Change. This function takes two arguments to specify the program and the channel (_e.g._ <icode>program_change(1, 1)</icode>).
|
||||
|
||||
\`\`\`javascript
|
||||
program_change(pick(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8), 1)
|
||||
\`\`\`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## System Exclusive Messages
|
||||
|
||||
- <icode>sysex(...number[])</icode>: send a MIDI System Exclusive message. This function takes any number of arguments to specify the message (_e.g._ <icode>sysex(0x90, 0x40, 0x7f)</icode>).
|
||||
|
||||
## Clock
|
||||
|
||||
- <icode>midi_clock()</icode>: send a MIDI Clock message. This function is used to synchronize Topos with other MIDI devices or DAWs.
|
||||
|
||||
\`\`\`javascript
|
||||
mod(12) && midi_clock() // Sending clock to MIDI device from the global buffer
