What does it do ?
Adds two instruments to the programmable speaker, one called "Violin Ensemble" the other one "String Ensemble" with 96 notes, from F1 to E9 for you to make music or alerts.
"Violin Ensemble" : samples last 1 second or 60 ticks, with only half being the note, and the rest the decay and silence. Made for playing MIDI melody.
Here is a demo of the "Violin Ensemble" instrument playing :
It's me who manually changed the "piano" instrument to "violin", there may still be some tuning problems to recognize the original.
"String Ensemble"
Samples were made from a synthetizer to try and mimic the sound of a string section. All samples have exactly the same total duration of 4 seconds or 240 game ticks, with 1 second or 60 ticks of notes and 3 seconds of silence to make it easier to play more dynamic melody, while still having a duration that align with the other instrument mods from my page. But it sounded horrible when i attempted to use as MIDI instrument, so i added the other one. I like how it sound otherwise, when not attempting to use the polyphony.
1) It is possible that the pitch of the samples be changed in the future to have a better tuning.
2) It is also possible that the label of the notes be a little off currently
3) It is also possible that additionnal instruments like cello be added on the same mod later.
