Hey... very nice. I downloaded it and it works well.

By the way, I used Timidity to "batch convert" the .mid's to .wav's. The 
following was a post to the Timidity User page that explains it...

===========================================
<SNIP>
If you give timidity a playlist, or a wildcard, it will play every midi 
file in
the file list.  If it is writing to wav files, it will automatically
generate the output name for the wav file based on the name of the input
file.  So, to convert all the midi in a directory into wav files:
timidity -Ow1S -s 44100 *.mid
