Here’s where it gets fun. Because your music is just data, you can manipulate it on the fly. midi2lua

All major midi2lua tools support live reloading. Write a script, trigger a MIDI event, see what happens, and refine. This rapid feedback loop makes midi2lua development surprisingly addictive. tracks = Here’s where it gets fun

-- Define a function to handle pitch bend events function pitch_bend(channel, value) print("Pitch bend:", channel, value) end Write a script, trigger a MIDI event, see

-- Helper: Read Variable Length Quantity (VLQ) local function readVLQ() local value = 0 local b repeat b = file:read(1):byte() value = (value << 7) | (b & 0x7F) until (b & 0x80) == 0 return value end

Now that we've covered the basics of midi2lua, let's dive deeper into working with MIDI data in Lua.
