Re: Imported Midi In Wrong Key With Wrong Note Timing?
Hi,

One example is whether you want to transcribe the MIDI file quite precisely by not removing any rests. This shows all the details of a performance, including rests of very small duration. If you want a "cleaner" and simpler score, you can remove rests of varying duration. You can use Format/Retranscribe if you've already opened a file, but want to change any of these transcription options. Another example is the performance versus notation of "swing" style pieces. To keep swing notation cleaner, certain performance aspects (eg. triplets) are assumed and so not included in the score. For another example, a strummed guitar chord actually sounds as a very fast arpeggio. However, one would expect it show up on sheet music as a lined up chord group of notes. If you're using an audio-to-MIDI application to take an audio file to a MIDI file, this type of timing issue is typically pretty pronounced. I know because I've tried nearly all of them out You can check to see if these notes in the original MIDI file are actually lined up perfectly or not by viewing the Piano Roll. The Piano Roll view shows you exactly what the underlying MIDI file looks like in terms of (1) attack (the beginning of each note) and the duration (the length of each note). When Composer transcribes a file into notation, it's trying to give you the best notational representation of the underlying MIDI performance, so that you can get readable sheet music. If you want to hear all such notes together as they're notated, in Composer, you can do the following (without having to re-enter all the notes ): 1. Open your file in Composer.Does this address the issue that you're seeing? If not, please do attach a file so I can take a look at exactly what you're seeing and provide a little better analysis to the exact problem. Thanks! Sherry
