Perhaps it's time for you to attach some evidence in the form of a
MIDI file that you have produced.

You might also attach the .ly file that you obtain by "importing"
my attached MIDI file into LilyPond (through whatever process you
habitually use). AFAICT, the other people in this thread are
decoding MIDI files that they themselves generated.
