Sure? I know there is a message for encoding the key signature, but the clef?
Yesterday I was messing with a MIDI imported in Rosegarden and edited
a bass segment with the event editor, and one of the first events was
a clef event. Let me look at it again tonight.
Maybe the clef event was generated by Rosegarden on import?
As far as I know there is not a commonly accepted MIDI file event for
Clefs, like there is for Time Signature (FF 58 04) and Key Signature (FF
59 02). But I guess it is possible for a Sequencer like Rosegarden to put
a special message in a "Sequencer Specific Meta-Event" (FF 7F). Or in a
text event (FF 01) which, according to the Standard MIDI-File Format Spec
1.1 that I'm looking into now, can contain "Any type of text containing
anything".
Personally I would not choose to let Lilypond/midi2ly be able to export or
import such a non-standard Clef event.
