Reverse engineer Makecode arcade song hex buffers

[UnsignedArduino]

New Song format

I just remembered that I promised @UnsignedArduino that I would make a post linking to the new song format! Well, better late than never. The format of the song buffer is documented here: That file also contains all of the code for encoding/decoding the songs from buffers (in this case, uint8Arrays). The default instruments are all defined in the getEmptySong function. This code is mirrored in the arcade game engine here: If I were, hypothetically, making a webapp that converted midi file…

But it sounds like crap and I’m not going to use something that only supports a midi file that is like one instrument.

Do you have an example where it sounds very bad?
