You really need to specify the OS environment you're targeting, as well as telling what program you're intending to feed MIDI into, if you've already picked one. Also, the midi file format has timing information, and that timing should be much better than trying to do it in python before sending commands to some external program. In other words, instead of sleeping in your code and then issuing one midi event, use the midi file format to send a stream of commands that will be played according to the timing information included. -- DaveA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
