Default Hello Djim,

Hello Djim,

<blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1>quote:</font>

If so,shouldn´t Composer have opened the file in the key of Bes/B flat( or whatever ) instead of in the original key (C ), or do I miss some point ?<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>If you still have the original MIDI file, please send it, and I'll take a look. Sometimes MIDI files have the incorrect key sig, most typically C when it should be something else. This typically happens if the MIDI file author uses a MIDI sequencer app, and that author doesn't care about notation, or perhaps doens't even read notation. That author might record the MIDI from his MIDI keyboard, and save the MIDI file with a default C key sig.

Perhaps Composer should consider a key sig of C as a special case. Rather than assuming C is the correct key sig, Composer could do the harmony analysis and propose a different key sig to the user. Or, perhaps if the harmony analysis convincingly comes up with a different key sig, the C key sig in the MIDI file would be ignored. Does that proposal make sense? If so, would you like Composer to do that?

Cheers
-- Mark
