Microsoft DirectX 9.0 SDK Update (October 2004)

Creating DLS Instruments Programmatically

The following example code shows how to create a DLS instrument from a WAV file and make it available to the performance.

The entry point for the example is the PlayDLSFromWAV function, which creates and downloads the instrument and plays two notes on it by sending performance messages. This function uses two classes defined in the DirectX sample framework. The pWaveFile parameter is an instance of CWaveFile representing a WAV file that has already been opened. An instance of CMusicManager is used to create and initialize the performance.
