MIDI ONLY, NO AUDIO

These files contain notes, not sound. Load your own guitar, bass and drum instruments.

WHAT'S INCLUDED (40 MIDI files)

- 8 FULL files, one per arrangement (all parts together)

- 8 each of guitar, bass, lead and drum split part files (32 files)

- Composition spec for each arrangement (score.json, optional; not needed to use the MIDI)

- Quick-start guide in English and French, drum map (DRUM-MAP.json), file index with the tuning of each arrangement, checksums, licence in English and French

FULL OR SPLIT PARTS, NOT BOTH

Load the FULL file or the split parts, never both, or every note plays twice.

GANG SHOUTS AND HARMONY LEADS

Gang-shout breaks are instrumental unison hits; there is no vocal or shout track. Harmony leads (in thirds) are both on the single lead track. To pan or voice them separately, split the lead track in your own software.

SET YOUR TUNING: E STANDARD OR DROP D

Five arrangements are in E Standard (Razor Union, Dead Signal Choir, Sawtooth Parade, Lockjaw Commute, Last Bus to Nowhere). Guitar: E2 A2 D3 G3 B3 E4. Bass: E1 A1 D2 G2.

Three are in Drop D (Concrete Psalm, Iron Ration, Fallout Shelter Social). Guitar: D2 A2 D3 G3 B3 E4. Bass: D1 A1 D2 G2.

Any 6-string guitar and 4-string bass reach every note. Guitar MIDI 38 to 60 and lead MIDI 57 to 84. Bass MIDI 26 to 36.

Tempos run from 140 to 212 BPM. Above 180 BPM the riffs and leads use 8ths and 8th-note triplets; 16ths and gallops appear at 176 BPM and below. Mosh sections are a halftime feel at the main tempo, with no tempo change.
