Mapping-Midi-NameNote-Dictionary

Author: Bocaletto Luca

This repository provides comprehensive mappings from MIDI note numbers (21–108) to musical note names in English, Italian, and combined English + Italian formats. It serves as a ready-to-use reference for audio applications, MIDI data processing, digital instrument development, and educational tools that need to translate raw MIDI signals into human-readable note names.

Features

• Full coverage of the MIDI note range from A0 (21) through C8 (108)
• Three distinct mapping dictionaries:
  • English note names (e.g., “C4”, “G#3”)
  • Italian note names (e.g., “DO4”, “SOL#3”)
  • Combined English + Italian notation (e.g., “C4 – Do4”)
• Framework-agnostic format: plain text dictionaries for loading into any programming environment
• Ideal for real-time MIDI visualizers, music notation tools, educational demos, prototyping, and testing

Getting Started

1. Clone or download this repository.
2. Select the mapping file you need:
   • english_note_names.txt
   • italian_note_names.txt
   • english&italian-note-names.txt
3. Load the chosen file into your application’s data structure (e.g., a dictionary or map).
4. Use the MIDI note number as the lookup key to obtain its corresponding note name.

No external dependencies are required beyond basic file I/O and data-structure support in your chosen language.
