midi and .wav - different in Nokia phones?

[dkunz]

hello,

i am trying to port my java code that was fully functional on my sonyericsson k750 to my new n95 8gb. However, i noticed my midi commands (playing a single midi note e.g. snare drum) as well as my .wav playing routines - the later reads a file from the memory are not working anymore.
any hints??? any links / examples?

thanks, Dominik

Hi Dominik,

you can find all MMAPI support infos for Nokia devices here:

About your specific issue, are you getting any Exceptions? If yes, try posting related code, so It'll be easier to spot out the possible reasons.

Hello Pit,

Thanks for your reply.
Regarding the Midi issue:

no, i don't get any exceptions. The code seems to work fairly ok (massive time delay) on the emulator but downloading and running the code on the the mobile doesn't result in any sound.

I thought maybe someone else might have implemented some Midi soudn effects in this forum....

Best, Dominik

Uhm... guessing... is your phone in Silence mode?

no, it's not. i can hear someone calling and i can also listen to a .mid file and to .mp3 files (also tried using headphones).
I attached a code snippet. Maybe someone could have a look at it.
As said, it all worked fine on my K750i.

Thanks, Dominik
