[LMMS-devel] for those who want to import GeneralMidi files

[<ins...@li...>]

Hello,
when importing GM midi files sf2player often (almost ever) fails to set the 
right drumkit bank so it is possible to add the following lines:
---------------
if (evt->chan!=9) 
{
ch->it_inst->childModel( "bank" )->setValue( 0);
ch->it_inst->childModel( "patch" )->setValue( prog );
}
else
{
ch->it_inst->childModel( "bank" )->setValue( 128 );
ch->it_inst->childModel( "patch" )->setValue( prog );
}

----------------
in plugins/MidiImport.cpp
in
bool MidiImport::readSMF( trackContainer * _tc )
after

if( update == "programi" )
				{
					long prog = evt->get_integer_value();
					if( ch->isSF2 )
					{

This works for most GM files.
It can interfere with not GM or not compliant midi files so it's better to put 
a messagebox before.
