Prevent automatic playback?

[macca007x]

Hey, how do I prevent the sequencer/synth from automatically playing as soon as the midifile loads?

It seems to be on by default.

Even if I add a .pause() directly after, it still plays for a brief moment??

const sequencer = new Sequencer([{ binary: midiFileArrayBuffer }], synth);
sequencer.pause();

I want the user to load the midi, then press play when they are ready.

@spessasus Could you provide some insight here? Not sure if I'm configuring incorrectly or not...

@spessasus That works perfectly, thanks man!

I think I have an idea on how to integrate this with main.

Sequencer would have a property preservePlaybackState which would default to false, indicating the current behavior. Once you set it to true, it will work like the branch I made for you.

What do you think?

@spessasus Sounds great 👌

Hi again,

I've added that functionality into the sequencer. Upgrade to the latest npm package and check out https://github.com/spessasus/SpessaSynth/wiki/Sequencer-Class

I hope this was what you were looking for. Feel free to reply if something isn't right.
