Right. The pitch is plain old MIDI pitch, and we need to do the right thing even where the pitches came from a plain old MIDI device, i.e. no accidentals are available. > However, I'm getting NoAccidental back for a note with pitch 41. This should happen if the pitch came from a plain old MIDI device. Accidentals should only be specified if the user has actually specified them in Rosegarden. Rosegarden doesn't permanently record accidentals that it has only guessed. > How should I determine the accidental to use?

Basically, yes -- but see Michael's comments about the Pitch class. > If so, is there a convenient way to find the current key? Segment::getKeyAtTime(timeT).
