We maintain a repository for programs donated by users that may be useful in connection with Mup. THEY ARE PROVIDED AS IS. ARKKRA ENTERPRISES MAKES THEM AVAILABLE AS A SERVICE, BUT PROVIDES NO SUPPORT AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY.

If you have a program you would like to donate, send us email at

User-donated programs include:

• winmup - a Windows front end for of Mup. Note: this program has become largely obsoleted by the Mupmate program that now comes with Mup, but it is still available if you want to try it. After installing Mup, you can execute winmup11.exe to unpack the files, then execute the setup file that is created to install them. The winmup source program (Visual Basic) is also available.
• mtmA MIDI-to-Mup converter
• An older version of the mtm MIDI-to-Mup conversion program is also available: mtm in Unix format gzip-ed tar file or mtm in DOS zip file format A MIDI-to-Mup converter program. This program only handles one note at a time per voice and has other limitations, but may still be useful for some Mup users.
• midi2mup (Unix format gzip-ed tar file) or midi2mup (DOS format zip file). Another MIDI-to-Mup converter program. This one does handle multiple notes per voice. Requires Perl.
• spkrmidi - play simple MIDI files on computer speaker for UNIX SV_R4 or Linux x86 systems.
• guitar - an "include" file that expands chord names into guitar chord notes. This is especially useful for MIDI, because you can hear how a guitar chord part will sound without having to write out all the individual notes.
• grids - an "include" file that defines guitar grids.
• gen_midi - Mup macros for specifying General MIDI instruments by name. (An alternate set of macros for the same purpose is available here.)
• mupsdice and muphelp. mupsdice is a script that uses random numbers to generate a waltz in the style of Mozart, and muphelp is an application that makes it easy to find subjects in the Mup documentation files.
• mup.pats - Mup syntax pattern file for nedit
• mup.vim - Mup syntax pattern file for vim
• An emacs mode for Mup files
• mup.xml - Mup syntax highlighter file for Kate and Kwrite editors
• mupfont.tgz - A collection of Quikscript files for use with Mup, and an extracted standalone version of the Mup music font.
• midiator.tgz - Linux library and simple MIDI play/record program for the MIDIATOR MS-124W. The MS-124W is a 1-input, 4-output serial port MIDI box that was once available from Octet Design.
• mupxpnd.l - expand a 2-staff condensed vocal score to a 4-staff vocal score.
• splitvoices - ksh script that takes staffs with a single voice and splits the chords into two voices.

• Simple program to play a voice from a Mup file on a PalmPilot
• program to take voices in PocketSynth format and convert them to a Mup file which can then be edited on a PalmPilot or exported to a desktop for printing or playing.
• A collection of python scripts for manipulating Mup files, and some Mup macro definitions. These include:
  • Mup-Template: A simple python script which creates a "blank" Mup score
  • Mup-Score-Renumber: A simple python script which renumbers comments in a Mup score.
  • Mup Accompaniment: A not-so-simple python script which analyzes a Mup score and adds a bass line to it.
