I got that one dealt with.  If you ever end up in this situation again, 
you can select all those whole notes in 2/4 time and Adjust -> Notes... 
-> Tie Notes at Barlines now.

As a nice bonus, the next time you change from 4/4 to 2/4 you won't even 
have to run this manually.  The underlying function was already being 
called in this scenario, but it didn't handle this case correctly.  It 
does now.

After manually fixing the whole notes in your file, I changed the time 
signature to 1/4 and immediately got four tied quarter notes, one per bar.

Perfect.

Well there you go.  Removing one = sign went a very long way this time!

You are right.  I remember these things from when I was a young man and
I'm an old man now.  On Linux you can set up a pitch to MIDI converter in
AMS (ALSA Modular Synthesizer) and  a MIDI output envelope tracker,
without too much trouble.  Or, you can output the pitch and envelope
information as a control voltage (CV) if you have a DC coupled soundcard 
(usually those are the really really cheap ones) and use that to control
an analog synthesizer with a guitar as the controller.

Once you start coupling innovative controllers with AMS and Rosegarden and
perhaps back the other way also, things get really interesting and
creative.
Have fun!

You caught me at a better time than most new users do.  It's not often I 
can get work done this close to somebody having a problem.

So this tie notes at bars thing does work, but these 4-beat notes in a 
2-beat bar are a case it does not handle.  Looks like it has been that 
way about 15 years.

My church band's former lead guitarist had a guitar MIDI setup with stomp box 
synthesizer. Got some great string sounds out of it. And it picked up bends and 
the whammy bar on his Strat.

Jerry Garcia used a guitar MIDI setup (built into his custom-built guitars). So 
did Al Di Meola, running it into a Classic Mac that sat there on stage with 
him. Saw it in a solo performance of his televised ages ago.

Apparently these things have been around a long time.

That is excellent! I shall have to save up for that.
