Musical Instrument Library (Mib)
A library adding common to use musical instruments.
About this Mod
Musical Instrument Library (Mib)
Supports Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21 and above!
Mib is a mod that adds 8 unique instruments. However, the catch is that they don't do much on their own, only acting as a goat horn style item if you only have this mod installed.
Where this mod truly shines is integration within other mods, developers are encouraged to include/jar in jar this instrument system, and implement special content for the instruments within their own mod. For example, our mod, Orchestrate (To Be Released), which allows you to compose using the instruments and sounds of this mod.
The instruments this mod adds are:
- Acoustic Guitar
- Copper Goat Horn
- Fantasy Trumpet
- Flute
- Harpsichord
- Keyboard
- Saxophone
- Violin
You can get the instruments by crafting them through the crafting table. Check your recipe book or recipe viewer!
