This may well be a completely daft question, but if so, please tell me nicely.
I want to record a track (using a midi keyboard and qtractor, probably) as a control track for performing subsequent tracks. So this first track would perhaps simply be a wood-block or cow bell voice marking the beats of my intended performance, complete with idiosyncrasies and variations of pulse. What I would like to do then is to convert that track to an actual timing track, so that the beats (and bars) shown in qtractor etc. correspond to the actual beats and bars of the performance. This will make it much easier to navigate around the file later on. The timing track would consist of a new tempo every beat, reflecting the detailed timing of the original track. I can probably do this with a Python program in conjunction with midicsv. But I am sure other people must want to do this sort of thing at times, so perhaps there is already something I could use to achieve what I want without having to write my own program. Perhaps the facility is already there in qtractor or some other application. Suggestions, please.
