.SH NAME
midiDmon \- Midi Receiving Daemon for Ultra 64 audio
.SH SYNOPSIS
\f3midiDmon\f1 [-v] -b <BankFile>
.SH DESCRIPTION
Midi Daemon is used to play midi on the Ultra 64 in real time. The 
Midi Daemon requires that you specify the name of a bank file to 
load. You specify this name without any extensions. The bank should 
already be built using IC, and the files must have
.I \.ctl,
.I \.tbl,
and
.I \.sym
extensions. You use the -b argument to specify the bank file. Midi 
Daemon also has a -v flag for verbose operation. The following 
is an example of a typical command line to start Midi Daemon.

.SH EXAMPLE
midiDmon -b ../banks/GenMidiBank
.PP 
When the Midi Daemon is ready to begin receiving midi, it will play a single 
note, of middle C, on the first instrument in the bank that was loaded. This 
is your cue that all is well.

.RS 5

correctly set up.
