That's pretty much what I thought he had undertaken, but I must have misunderstood. > Inserting a tempo for each note event (as you almost suggest) would > probably be ideal for ramps... I vote for whatever is less complicated, and I want to state that my position on the issue is that MIDI is already a lossy format, so additional loss of information is perfectly acceptable to me. The goal should be to get a file you can drop into any MIDI player and reproduce the same thing Rosegarden would have played. If it achieves this using weird note durations, so be it. If it achieves it some other way, so be it. The means matter far less than the end here. > Neither way is impossible, but either is fiddly enough to explain why > we haven't managed to do it already!
