Midi Output Port

For API level 23 (android 6.0 - Marshmallow) or higher
We added support for new android midi API. This new API provides a way to connect MIDI input/output ports.
So you'll be able tu connect tuxguitar's output with any synthesizer implementing this new API.

For example,
- You can install "FluidSynth MIDI Synthesizer" from play store
- Configure a GM soundfont (*.sf2) on fluidsynth settings
- Then in tuxguitar go to the new options menu "Settings" and select the fluidsynth port in Midi Output Port section... read more
