Convert H2SONG to MIDI

Understanding H2Song and MIDI file formats

H2Song is the native song project file format used by Hydrogen, an open-source drum machine software. H2Song files store drum patterns, instrument settings, and song arrangements, allowing users to edit and playback drum tracks within Hydrogen.

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) files are a universal standard for storing musical performance data. MIDI files contain information about notes, timing, velocity, and instrument assignments, making them compatible with a wide range of digital audio workstations (DAWs) and music software.
