The tools uses code libraries such as "BAEFile.cpp", and others.

Many needed code files are just missing, could you add the code?

Good morning Mr. Hales,

I'm Jake, from the Haiku project over at https://www.haiku-os.org. Over at Haiku, we are building an open-source, easy to use, desktop operating system that is aiming to be binary compatible with the Be Operating System from the late 1990s / early 2000s. Based on some research, I found that your past endeavors of Headspace, Inc and Beatnik, Inc helped Be, Inc design the midi synthesizer powering the BeOS Midi Kit back in the day.

Simply put, I'm hoping to improve Haiku's re-implementation of the Midi Kit from BeOS (documented here: https://www.haiku-os.org/legacy-docs/bebook/TheMidiKit_Overview.html). As part of this improvement process, I'm hoping to utilize the Beatnik Audio Engine as the software synthesizer in Haiku's Midi Kit. Looking through the code of your audio engine, I saw that there are traces of BeOS code leftover, however, I can't actually find the platform-specific BeOS code within your codebase. I was wondering if you had any BeOS-specific code or documentation that could assist in this re-implementation process. Otherwise, I understand if these resources were lost to time, as I presume that most of this work was done almost two decades ago.

Finally, I want to thank you, Mr. Nitchals, and the rest of your team for your contributions to the audio space (I'm amazed to hear that your audio engine helped in the process of the creation of the original Nokia ring tone!).

Thank you for your time!

Sincerely,
Jake
