Does anyone know how to convert a MIDI file from

KeyKit produces the former, seq24 can apparently read the latter. I
want to get sequences I generate in KeyKit into seq24.
A command line tool would be best, but any suggestions are welcome.
hi,
you can use midish. Just import the format 0 midi file and then
export it. This will generate a format 1 midi file with one "tempo
track" and one track per channel. Example:
$ rmidish
send EOF character (control-D) to quit
1> songimportsmf "sample.mid"
2> songexportsmf "sample-fmt1.mid"

If you want to convert a lot of midi files then you can embed these
commands in a small shell script... let me know if you have
problems with it.
