NAME

       aplaymidi - play Standard MIDI Files

SYNOPSIS

       aplaymidi -p client:port[,...] [-d delay] midifile ...

DESCRIPTION

       aplaymidi  is  a  command-line  utility  that  plays the specified MIDI
       file(s) to one or more ALSA sequencer ports.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Prints a list of options.

       -V, --version
              Prints the current version.

       -l, --list
              Prints a list of possible output ports.

       -p, --port=client:port,...
              Sets the sequencer port(s) to  which  the  events  in  the  MIDI
              file(s) are sent.

              A  client  can be specified by its number, its name, or a prefix
              of its name. A port is specified by its number; for port 0 of  a
              client,  the ":0" part of the port specification can be omitted.

              For compatibility with pmidi(1), the port specification is taken
              from the ALSA_OUTPUT_PORTS environment variable if none is given
              on the command line.

       -d, --delay=seconds
              Specifies how long to wait after the end of each MIDI  file,  to
              allow the last notes to die away.
