ArcadeMIDI extension

Thanks @UnsignedArduino, for this great midi-extension, and the earlier musical-images extension, which makes composing more advanced music easier and with more options than the built-in basic music editor! -And a great gallery with many nice songs here from many on the forum known for more advanced contributions: https://forum.makecode.com/t/song-gallery/5471

But there seems to be few songs which feature percussion sounds and the variety in sound types/waveforms like e.g. @kwx does programatically in the “simple” loops here.

Would it be possible to have more control over the soundwaves, like documented here, in any of your tools, other tools that are know, or any of the built-in tools, that could produce music akin to the @kwx’ et. al. “simple” loops?

And what about this built-in(or extension?) music sequencer “based on mario paint” discussed here? I can´t even find such a music editor in the MakeCode editor with icons representing instruments and polyphonic sounds, but then again, I am pretty noob…

Are we getting closer to, or maybe they already exist, to one or more toolsets which fully utilizes or pushes the limits to what is possible to do with sound and music in MakeCode Arcade, like for example the good old trackers from the demoscene?
