I'm looking for a good free MIDI player.
Currently I'm mainly using vanBasco's Karaoke Player. It mostly does a good job, but I particularly miss some of the features I have on an old and no longer updated player, MegaMID. Specifically the ability to change instruments on the fly, and the excellent note display of MegaMID (which shows pitch bends graphically, for instance; I dislike vBKP's note display in both forms, particularly its bizarre insistence that I should think in terms of a piano keyboard). Being able to adjust the volume of individual channels would also be nice (a feature I had on yet a third player that I used to use).
I don't need karaoke features, I don't need conversion utilities, I don't need notation or editing capability (though I'd probably use them if I had them; but I have other software that does a reasonable job of that). I just need a MIDI player that lets me change things around a bit more than vBKP.
