Rosegarden Developers: I have been experimenting (in Rosegarden) with the music notation editor.
I have been pleasantly surprised with the tools available for entering notes using the mouse (or even step-recording). I have also been pleasantly surprised with how well Rosegarden is at printing either conductor scores, or the individual instrument parts.
I have also been elated, that I can play simultaneously all of the parts of a symphony orchestra, using Qsynth with 4 Synth 'engines', without the computer even 'breaking into a sweat'. This even worked on a slow 1.7 gigahertz single-processor machine (though that machine was using up almost all of its capability).
Since recording MIDI is much quicker than entering all of the notes, I also experimented with recording MIDI.
I have noticed, that If I record MIDI from a MIDI keyboard, no matter how carefully I am (timing-wise) playing with the metronome sounding, I end up with small (16th rest, 32nd rest, 64th rest) rests between notes. If I select the notes, and do quantization, it cleans it up somewhat, but never completely.
So it is appearing that if I want to be able to print out the music parts, or conductor score, I need to enter the notes manually in the notation editor, rather than recording MIDI from a keyboard.
Unless (I am hoping) any of you have some good ideas for cleaning-up the music notation of recorded MIDI.
