arecordmidi2 - record a MIDI Clip file
arecordmidi2 [options] midi2file
arecordmidi2 is a command-line utility that records a MIDI Clip file from one or more ALSA sequencer ports.
To stop recording, press Ctrl+C.
When - is passed to the MIDI Clip file argument, it's recorded to stdout. It implies -s option, too.
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.
arecordmidi2 creates a UMP Endpoint containing the same number of Function Blocks as specified by this option, each of which is connected to the specified port as a source.
When no source ports are specified with -p option, arecordmidi2 creates a UMP Endpoint with full 16 Function Blocks and records from those inputs. User can connect the sequencer ports freely via aconnect, for example. This mode can be used together with the interactive mode via -r option.
The time signature is specified as usual with two numbers, representing the numerator and denominator of the time signature as it would be notated. The denominator must be a power of two. Both numbers should be separated by a colon. The time signature is 4:4 by default.
