Reverse engineering documentation and tools for the Yamaha MU series and related legacy MIDI sound modules. Using this you can extract data tables, MIDI files, icon bitmaps, and WAV files from the original firmware and wave ROMs (which are not included in this project). The source code also contains documentation on the data structures and sample formats used.
This project requires some header files from the WDL "Tale" Edition library, which you can download from:
Extract it so you have (at least) the following files from this project:
GNUmakefile
Makefile
*.cpp
And then these files from WDL:
WDL/heapbuf.h
WDL/pcmfmtcvt.h
WDL/wavread.h
WDL/wavwrite.h
WDL/wdlendian.h
WDL/wdlstring.h
WDL/wdltypes.h
WDL/win32_utf8.h
To extract data tables from the MU50 firmware simply run:
make mu50-table
Or when using the Microsoft C/C++ compiler and tools:
nmake mu50-table
See GNUmakefile or Makefile for all supported
sound modules and options.
