thanks Ben - hmm I think I will use a midi/csv utility http://www.fourmilab.ch/webtools/midicsv/ and see how that goes. Another option is http://playitbyr.org/index.html and output to Csound and from there to midi. PlayitbyR and into Csound might be something that suits your work, Csound being enormously powerful although a bit clunky to use - although I haven't used it in about 10 years - maybe it has improved since then, perhaps I'd better look :)
thanks, Greg >tuneR writes Wave (.WAV?) files as output; it can also write output suitable for lilypond input -- and lilypond can write MIDI output. Bottom line, I think you may have to use an external program to convert Wave to midi, or something. It wouldn't be too hard to write ABC (http://abcnotation.org) output and run it through abc2midi ... http://rpubs.com/bbolker/3237 is an example of some stuff I was playing with recently along these lines. I don't see any midi input anywhere ... library("sos"); findFn("midi") doesn't give a lot of hits ...
