ArcadeMIDI extension

Any news about the ArcadeMIDI extension, @UnsignedArduino?..

How is your page for exporting to music editor format going?

Just learned that some demo programmers “cheat” by using Windows built-in GSM610 codec for samples compression and the gm.dls midi sound bank/font to keep the file sizes below 64kB. Then I started to wonder if something similar would be possible with MakeCode Arcade, like:
-maybe with a halfway portable midi sounds from inside Chrome-based browser accessible from an extension?
-or, maybe there is enough freedom just with the built-in sounds and envelopes to make good sounding “chiptune” music and even speech synthesis like on the C64?
