Afraid not, matey! :)

Well, there's MIDI-Bar which really only displays the notes
from each channel from a MIDI device onto the screen as a
series of lines for each note on each channel. The length
of line is determined by the velocity of the note. It also
displays the program number of the channel. It's still in
beta stages - and I want to add something showing the MIDI
heartbeat and possibly the pitch of the channel (but my
keyboard doesn't have a pitch wheel so I doubt I'll do that).

I'm also writing a Standard MIDI File to SAM Sequencer
converter in machine code (actually, it's in C) which
is slightly faster than the BASIC one. :)

Also in the pipeline is MIDI-Bark (MIDI file player based
on MIDI-Bar). Which is most likely have it's own file
format but be able to convert from both SMF and Sequencer.
The new format will allow the files to be played in the
background with the minimum fuss of time converting.

Yes. :)
