Not for anything useful, just experimenting...
I guess the tool would best be connecting to a midi-through port
rather than hard-coding a particular synth?
The tool would just be required to send a single midi note to some
port. The note to be sent should be specifiable on command line,
along with length/velocity ... probably would be enough.
Any ideas?
# play middle C for 2 seconds
# on channel 1 then turn it off
amidi -p hw:1,0 -S "90 3C 7F" \
sleep 2 \
amidi -p hw:1,0 -S "90 3C 00"
Replace your port as needed...
Hope that helps.
