4) pak.xml

OPTIONAL: If you are creating a Contruction Kit Pak, this file tells Mixtikl that it should display the Pak in the Pak list (as well as defining the tempo, root etc of your Pak). Do not include it if you are making a Separates Pak.

From the webpage, copy the text below and paste it into a new text file that you save in your MyName_MyPak folder as pak.xml. Modify the pak.xml it to suit your requirements (see below for the optional items you can delete) :

<pak
messagespath="intermorphic/mixtikl/paks/MyName_MyPak/messages" 
tempo="135" 
root="F" 
scale="Major" 
displayname="1" 
kmopenname="2" 
description="3" 
copyright="4" 
dispscale="5" 
eska="0"> 
</pak>

<copy text above... >

Notes:

messagespath: The path to your pak messages; this will include your folder name (e.g. intermorphic/mixtikl/paks/MyName_MyPak/messages)
tempo: The tempo is the tempo for which the content is designed to be played, in terms of beats per minute.
root: The root parameter should be the root to which the media in your content is designed to be played. For example, this might be A, A#, C, Db etc.
scale: The Scale is purely informational, describing guidance as to the harmonic structure of the content within the Pak; the user considers this, and for example might not choose to play a "Minor" Pak against a "Major" Pak (but there again: they might!).
displayname: DO NOT CHANGE, points to string 1 in Pak messages.asm file
kmopenname: DO NOT CHANGE, points to string 2 in Pak messages.asm file
description: DO NOT CHANGE, points to string 3 in Pak messages.asm file
copyright: DO NOT CHANGE, points to string 4 in Pak messages.asm file
dispscale: DO NOT CHANGE, points to string 5 in Pak messages.asm file
eska: DO NOT CHANGE
WHEN MODIFYING THE XML, BE CAREFUL NOT TO ADD SPACES WITHIN DOUBLE-QUOTE CHARACTERS (except where text)
