Yes, this does solve my problem. I can use "s8" instead of "r8" because I
don't need a visible rest there. The written music can start with the
leading eighth note, but the midi needs the extra eighth rest to align with
the beat. The only drawback to this solution is that it causes a little bit
of empty horizontal space in the score. I would like to use an eighth rest
that doesn't consume any horizontal space. Does anyone have any suggestions
on how to do that?
