Clef is a mod that will allow us to manufacture a total of thirty-two musical instruments, which we can use to play music in ABC format. With this mod we can make electric guitars, acoustic guitars, electric keyboards, flutes, basses, trumpets, microphones, harps, drums, accordions, banjo, organs, harmonicas, pianos, clarinets, xylophones, oboe, saxophone and synthesizers, among others. These instruments are based on the instruments of the game Starbound.

The operation is simple, after making any of the instruments, if we put them in the hands of our character, and click on the right mouse button, a user interface will appear with a list of songs available in a predefined way. If we select any song from the list, it will begin to play that song with the instrument in question. If while the song is playing, we change the instrument, the song will be played with the new instrument, following the song, without starting again.
As we say, the mod adds predefined songs, but if we want we can add new songs, in ABC format. To add the new songs, we will have to place them inside our Minecraft installation, in the folder / mods / clef / abc.
Using Instruments
With your chosen instrument in hand, press the use key and a GUI would pop up, allowing you to select a song, play solo or in a band (with options to sync to their play time or their track), and to force the mod to reload all the ABC files or Instruments, and finally a Play button. Double clicking a song in the song list will immediately begin playing it.
Whilst playing an instrument, if the instrument is two handed, both hands must be free to play them. If they are one handed, the main hand will be prioritised and that will be played. To stop playing, merely use the instrument again or attack with the instrument.
Right clicking the Band Name will cycle through the available bands currently playing.
Bear in mind not to reload your ABC files if you have a significant number of them, it will cause the game to stall momentarily.
Holding shift whilst mousing over the instrument will tell you what pack the instrument is from, and what the item name for the instrument is.
The Instrument Player
The crafting recipe for the Instrument Player is as such: Planks, a chest, a note block, and a redstone torch.
Once placed, right click the block with an instrument to place the instrument inside. The Instrument Player has enough space for 9 instruments to be played simultaneously, once redstone power is applied.
Right click it again and you will see a similar GUI to the instrument GUI, but with some added features, most notably the storage space of the Instrument Player on the bottom right. Clicking any of the instruments there will eject the instrument on the top of the block.
There are also two buttons on the bottom of the song list, to allow you to add and view the playlist. Once you are viewing the playlist you will be able to see standard playlist settings such as shuffle, repeat, etc.
Making instruments with the Instrument Player
To make a new instrument with the instrument player, you need to fill up the Instrument Player with 9 instruments, and right click it with a name tag named as the item name of the instrument you want. To get the item name of the instrument, mouse over your instrument in the inventory and hold Shift. This item name is different from the name of the instrument.
You can only make instruments that either you have loaded to your game, or the server has loaded (configurable).
Getting more tracks and instruments
The way Clef works, is that tracks and instruments exist in actual files outside of the mod. As a result, you can easily drop any ABC file that you want to listen to in-game into the abc folder, or you can add new instruments by adding Starbound mod packs (in zip format) in the instruments folder.
There are ABC libraries available online, especially since Lord of The Rings Online and Starbound are both able to play these files.
It is also possible to unpack Starbound mods in pak format and rezip it into a zip format for Clef to read. Just be sure that the file structure follows Starbound’s file structure and the root of the archive are where the sfx, items folders belong.
