Version document 1.0 Dec, 03 2023 Maestro Midi Player Tool Kit API Changes
API Change V2.11.0 - December 1, 2023
 
  Main API Rules
   - The classes starting with Midi (MidiFilePlayer, MidiSynth, …)
        -  Inherit from Unity classes (generally MonoBehavior).
        - Theirs members start with MPTK_ to differentiate them from Unity members.
   - The classes starting with MPTK (MPTKWriter, MPTKEvent, MPTKChordBuilder …)
          - They are standalone,  don't inherit from Unity classes.
          - Their members name have no specific prefix.
       
  MidiFileLoader Deprecated, replaced by MidiFilePlayer
Channel API Change New class MPTKChannel and property MPTK_Channels in MidiFilePlayer, MidiStreamPlayer, …
MPTKRangeLib Renamed to MPTKScaleLib
MidiStreamPlayer Impacted by MPTKRangeLib renaming to MPTKScaleLib
MPTKEvent Rename a few members
MidiFileWriter2 Renamed to MPTKWriter,
impacted also by MPTKRangeLib renaming to MPTKScaleLib
MPTKEffectSoundFont New class MPTKEffectSoundFont and property MPTK_EffectSoundFont
MPTKEffectUnity New class MPTKEffectUnity and property MPTK_EffectUnity
MPTKTempo Remove MPTK_ prefix behind members
MPTKSignature Remove MPTK_ prefix behind members 
  MIDI File Loader API Change
MidiFileLoader prefab is deprecated, please use MidiFilePlayer prefab in place. Just replace MidiFileLoader prefab by MidiFilePlayer in your scene and replace MidiFileLoader class by MidiFilePlayer in your scripts.
Before:
MidiLoader MidiLoader;
Now:
MidiFilePlayer MidiLoader;
No change for using:
MidiLoader = FindObjectOfType<MidiFilePlayer>();
MidiLoader.MPTK_PlayOnStart = false;
MidiLoader.MPTK_DirectSendToPlayer = false; // No MIDI player
MidiLoader.MPTK_MidiIndex = midiindex;
MidiLoader.MPTK_Load();
foreach (MPTKEvent mptkEvent in MidiLoader.MPTK_MidiEvents)
   Debug.Log(mptkEvent.ToString());
 
  Channel API Change
Channel properties was directly accessible from MidiFilePlayer or MidiStreamPlayer instance with the counterpart of heaviness API description.

Now the iterable class MPTK_Channels is available  from MidiFilePlayer or MidiStreamPlayer instance and consolidate all properties and methods for managing channels.		 New: class MPTKChannel and attributes MPTK_Channels visible from MidiFilePlayer, MidiStreamPLayer, ...

Before: midiFilePlayer.MPTK_Channelxxxx(channel);
Now: midiFilePlayer.MPTK_Channels[channel].xxxx;

Migration is easy, your variable which hold the channel number becomes the index of the MPTK_Channels instance.

When olders methods are used, a warning message is displayed:
*** {older} is deprecated and will not works. Please investigate MPTK_Channels {newer} in place.

Error Management:
Before: midiFilePlayer.MPTK_Channelxxxx(channel) with a channel < 0 or >= Length didn't return an error but an empty string or a 0 integer.
Now: midiFilePlayer.MPTK_Channels[channel] with a channel < 0 or >= Length displays a log warning and return null which can cause other exception in your code.

Same for MidiStreamPlayer and MidiInReader instance.

  MPTKRangeLib class renamed - Pro only
MPTKRangeLib has been renamed to MPTKScaleLib Unity package update is not able to delete existing file from a previous version. You can delete (not mandatory) these files in Assets\MidiPlayer\Scripts\MPTKGameObject\Pro:
MPTKRangeName.cs and MPTKRangeName.cs

Remove MPTK_  prefix from members.
Writing by specifying time removed (Milli). Use now ConvertMilliToTick (see bellow) and demo.
  Old Members New Members  
Rules MPTK_<members> members Rule applied to members: remove prefix MPTK_
but properties which use a MPTK instance (MPTK_MidiEvents, MPTK_LastEvent, MPTK_LastEvent) keep prefix MPTK_

midiFileWriter2.MPTK_AddChangePresetMilli(1, 1000, 1, patch);

Now:
long tickFromTime = midiFileWriter.ConvertMilliToTick(1000);
midiFileWriter.AddChannelAfterTouch(1, tickFromTime, 1, patch);

tickFromTime = midiFileWriter.ConvertMilliToTick(1500);
int tickDuration = (int)midiFileWriter.DurationMilliToTick(500);

CreateTrack removed From V2.9.0 tracks are automatically created when needed.
EndTrack removed From V2.9.0 tracks are automatically closed when needed.
  MPTKEffectSoundFont new class created from MidiSynth - Pro only
All effects properties was at the same level than MidiSynth class. That was a mess to retrieve information from the documentation.
So we created MPTKEffectSoundFont class by extraction of all properties and methods from MidiSynth and remove MPTK_ before members.		 Before: midiFilePlayer.MPTK_SF<members>;
Now: midiFilePlayer.MPTK_EffectSoundFont.<members>;

It was also the time to bring more consistency to the member names. The list below includes only the modified names (members with MPTK_SF removed are not listed)

Migration is easy:
   - Add MPTK_EffectSoundFont before members_related_to_effect,
   - Remove MPTK_SF from the members name.

Example: the members MPTK_SFReverbAmplify becomes ReverbAmplify
Old Members New Members  
MPTK_Sf<members> members Rule applied to all members with exception below.
MPTK_ApplySFFilter EnableFilter  
MPTK_ApplySFReverb EnableReverb  
MPTK_ApplySFChorus EnableChorus
