Use Google Magenta to play MIDI files with Plyr player

How This Works

1. Magenta.js handles the actual MIDI playback using the Web Audio API
2. Plyr.io provides a beautiful UI for audio controls
3. The script connects Plyr’s play/pause buttons to Magenta’s playback functions

Important Notes

1. Direct MIDI Playback: Magenta.js synthesizes MIDI in real-time using the browser’s Web Audio API
2. Plyr Integration: Since Plyr doesn’t natively support MIDI, we use it mainly for the UI while Magenta handles the actual audio
3. Limitation: The progress bar in Plyr won’t accurately reflect MIDI playback progress (this would require more complex integration)

Alternative Approach (MIDI to MP3 Conversion)

For better Plyr integration, you could:

1. Use Magenta.js to convert MIDI to WAV/MP3 first
2. Then play the converted file with Plyr
