Well, it can't be done by event count, since you can have a different
number of events. If you get 16 from the MIDI interface and 15 from
the keyboard, you want the extra from the MIDI interface ignored,
because it didn't have a corresponding rhythmic value.
Likewise, if you have 16 from the keyboard and 15 from the MIDI
device, you want the 16th used, since it indicates the rhythmic value
for a rest.
Well, it might be a rest, and it might be a repeated note: one could
enter the opening motif of the Fifth Symphony of Beethoven with two sets
of MIDI signals, and four numeric keypad entries, the first three of
which match the first set of MIDI events.
The main thrust of my point was that what Christopher described is an
artifact of the design of the operating system, and may or may not be
within control of the developers of the application, unless they violate
the rules set by the OS.
