pedal thumping etc.

2004-01-03 by Spencer Chase

Greetings Walter and Group,

I am writing utility programs to modify MIDI files. Is there some
agreement regarding what needs to be done to eliminate duplicate track
data etc for problems like pedal thumping? Is this an issolated
problem or do certain MIDI file conventions (I really don't understand
the need for duplicate pedal information to be in files to begin
with.) produce files that cause problems and is there a need for
utilities to remove or shift these events?

Most of the functions in my utilities are for electronic piano rolls
but I am hoping to add functions for use by DKV owners. What sorts of
functions are needed. I can easily add functions like merging tracks.
I already can do this and can fix resulting overlaps but have not
attempted to remove redundant events. This is probably not difficult
to do but is it necessary? Does the DKV care if events are duplicated?
