</div></div>There is only one problem here: "midi I found somewhere on the net."<br>
<br>
The solution is: Don't convert midi to notation, it makes no sense and is futile.<br>
<br>
What you got here is<br>
Bach, Das Wohltemperierte Clavier I, Fuga IV (BWV 849)<br>
<br>
Visit <a href="http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=596" target="_blank">http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=596</a> and you get the notation as PDF, the lilypond source file, a midi and more information.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Hi Nils<br>Yes I am aware that midi is a lower level information than score.<br>I did not make it very clear in my question earlier (sorry about that) that this particular piece <br>-- bach C# minor fugue -- <br>
is not specifically important to me as working out a workflow which allows lifting a given midi to a higher score level. Nted does a decent job of this. Musescore less so. Just searching for the best tool.<br>Earlier I used nted exclusively. Since now I have a bunch of non-musician non-linux users getting interested I need something cross platform -- hence musescore.<br>
<br>Currently my modus operandi (when starting with a midi file):<br>Read into nted.<br>Export midi staff by staff separately.<br>Read each of those midis separately into musescore<br>Paste together.<br><br>And so I am just looking for some better tools... <br>
