I wrote a script in Lua to check MIDI files for consecutives. It assumes
one voice per track, so may not suit your needs for figured bass. I need to
make it more user-friendly, but would be happy to do so if anyone is
interested.

Congratulations to Thomas Tallis for having no consecutive fifths at
all in *Spem
in alium*!
