Hi Mohamed,

No, this is for continuous time only. However, Dr. Dan Ellis of Columbia University has an example of a numerical inverse z-transform written in MATLAB located here: http://www.ee.columbia.edu/~dpwe/e4810/matlab/s10/html/eval_z_transf.html

Note that this type of inversion is notoriously tricky to do numerically, as it requires very precise numbers. Working with the Symbolic Toolbox allows you to request arbitrary precision (e.g., 64 digits of precision).

Hope that helps!

Smooth and easy to use. I like that the right button pans.

Hi Bert,

Your question prompts a few things.

1. The MEX files for midi_interface.cpp are included, so you shouldn't need to build them. That script is only included in case someone *wants* to rebuild it for whatever reason. You should be able to just call midi_interface('open') from the command line to get going.

2. If for whatever reason you *do* want to rebuild it, it requires that you have the Windows SDK and edit midi_interface_builder.m to reflect the right path for its include and binary directories. This isn't documented because it's not intended for the user to do this.

3. The error is actually about a loss of precision in a cast. This is usually a warning instead of an error. Somewhere in your compiler, there's a setting for whether loss of precision should be considered an error or a warning. If you set it to warning, it will probably move on.

There's some included documentation about setting everything up. Have you read through this? Have you tried running any of the examples yet?

Hope that helps,
