Nice plugin 
. After the “death” of Rocksmith 2014 I’ve been working on something similar for the web browser, not for UE though. It’s a note highway for string instruments.
I will follow your progress on this. Interestingly MIDI files do not contain techniques used on an instrument (guitar slide, tap, harmonic, vibrato, pulls).
My goal is to create:
- an accessable file format (just midi, or json), not obfuscated in psarc, gpx, etc.
- Make the file contain instrument techniques for the “note highway”
- These files should be created in “3 clicks” from an existing format like psarc, gpx.
Having the MIDI file accessable from UE or in my case javascript is great but for the note highway we must integrate the instrument techniques and have converter to make it from existing file formats.
Do you have plans to work on this as well? Integrating instrument techniques into midi data for a note highway? I wonder if some common accepted format exists.
I’ve been studying some tools like Editor On Fire and the Rocksmith Toolkit, they seem to write a lot of data to XML instead of to MIDI. The MIDI to JSON library I am using on the repo I linked also bloats MIDI files enormously by writing pitch bends to a separate tick list. If that is the common format it’s a bit absurd.
