Default Hello Ian, That's a goo

Hello Ian,

That's a good idea, at the end of your above post, that you might show us specific examples of what Composer does versus what you wish it would do in the transcription.

One problem you mentioned is that in going back and forth between Composer and Band-in-a-Box, the rhythms get re-interpreted. The reason for this is the following: Whereas Composer .not files keep track of both the as-performed and as-notated rhythms, MIDI files keep track of only the MIDI rhythms. MIDI files are what are exchanged between Band-in-a-Box and Composer. So, any original information the Composer has about the difference between the as-performed and as-notated rhythms is lost in the transfer of the MIDI file, and so Composer must recalculate the notated rhythms again from scratch.

I have in mind two ways to overcome that problem with some new features I could implement in Composer.

Cheers
-- Mark
