Quick start
Download the latest BMP release. Unzip the archive and place the executable somewhere. Create a directory next to the executable called "songs", and place your MIDI files in there. Set up your game correctly as instructed in the manual. Load the MIDI file, bring up performance in-game, and then play.
Please note that this player's purpose is to only play back MIDI files. It does not automatically adjust, fine-tune, or arrange them to work flawlessly in the (already quite limited) bard performance. Either learn to edit the MIDI files to play correctly as per the manual, or check out the Midi Repository.
About
Running this website and hosting midis and the update service costs money. If you'd like to show appreciation, I wouldn't mind a tip:
