Convert chess games into music using a free Ruby-based tool.
If you're looking for a software that can read chess game descriptions and re-play the games, Bangkok is the one for you. This software sends you notifications of events such as moves, checks, and captures. One of the best things about Bangkok is that it comes with a built-in listener that generates a MIDI file. This means that the chess game is turned into music for you to enjoy while playing or simply listening to.
Bangkok includes a specialized GameListener that creates a MIDI sequence tailored to your preferences. The listener is given to a ChessGame object, which then reads a .pgn file and creates a board. The moves are given to the board so it can move the pieces, and the listener is notified when the game is over. This is when the GameListener writes the MIDI sequence out to a MIDI file for you to enjoy.
It’s important to note that when using Bangkok, you’re operating under the terms of the Ruby License. Nevertheless, this software is a great option for chess players and enthusiasts who want to get more out of their games.
