GENMIDI.OP2 is a sound bank file used by players based on DMX sound library to play MIDI files with General MIDI instruments using OPL2 sound chip (which was commonly installed on popular AdLib and Sound Blaster sound cards).
Major users of DMX sound library include:
This page hosts a formal specification of GENMIDI.OP2 OPL2 sound bank using Kaitai Struct. This specification can be automatically translated into a variety of programming languages to get a parsing library.
All parsing code for Ruby generated by Kaitai Struct depends on the Ruby runtime library. You have to install it before you can parse data.
The Ruby runtime library can be installed from RubyGems:
gem install kaitai-struct
Parse a local file and get structure in memory:
data = GenmidiOp2.from_file("path/to/local/file.op2")
Or parse structure from a string of bytes:
bytes = "\x00\x01\x02..."
data = GenmidiOp2.new(Kaitai::Struct::Stream.new(bytes))
After that, one can get various attributes from the structure by invoking getter methods like:
data.magic # => get magic
# This is a generated file! Please edit source .ksy file and use kaitai-struct-compiler to rebuild
require 'kaitai/struct/struct'
unless Gem::Version.new(Kaitai::Struct::VERSION) >= Gem::Version.new('0.9')
raise "Incompatible Kaitai Struct Ruby API: 0.9 or later is required, but you have #{Kaitai::Struct::VERSION}"
