I'verelied on writing a separate part for the midi output that uses
6/8, 9/8 etc...instead of 2/4, 3/4...have to add lots of "\times 2/3
{}" code.
It's brutal, yes, but if you already have the parts written for the
PDF output it should not take long to make the "special" version.
mmh I do try it now with openoctave midi, a fork of Rosegarden:
www.openoctave.org
It has a swing option.
