Cakewalk setup

Add PCSPE path to VST instruments, load MIDI file, select track, select "Replace Synth" in the track context menu, replace it with PCSPE, use its UI ("Log start") to record beeper data (you can select .h format in the file save dialog). Then you can feed the beeper data to the arduino sketch. See https://github.com/joric/ts80player/tree/master/firmware/Arduino_STM32/ts80midi
