Re : Midi file construction

For those of us who need to have MIDI sequences that conform pretty much
exactly to the score may be to use scanners & OCR type software like
MidiScan, I think most notation software like Finale (now at Finale 2000)
has this capability. So you can just use the actual score to make the
sequence. I suppose a degree of MIDI editing will be required.
