PwshTunes

This is a quick hack to allow me to play garbage tunes in PowerShell scripts by providing a MIDI-esque file for a monophonic tune using an adaptation of https://www.undocumented-features.com/2020/10/23/announcing-the-end-of-a-script-with-a-powershell-music/ (cheers Aaron!)

Using [Console]::Beep() seems to have some issues with audio drivers which use noise reduction because the driver takes a while to let the sound out e.g. on laptop/monitor speakers or bluetooth devices.
To work around it you can open a Youtube video in the background on low volume to keep the audio device active.

Another quirk of [Console]::Beep() is that it cuts sine waves in half so you get a lot of pops and crackles as it switches notes, I reduced this by adding a pause between notes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staccato) which can be set in the pstune file e.g. Staccato 3

Pop example

Use

Download this repo, cd into the directory and import the PowerShell Module to get started.

Import-Module .\Modules\PwshTunes.psm1
Invoke-Tune -Path .\Examples\PocketMon.pstune
