[linux-audio-user] MIDI sequencing "best practices" with multiple tracks?

I've been working on sequencing some stuff (favorite 20th cent. organ pieces) using apps like Rosegarden or Muse, and since I don't have a MIDI keyboard hooked up, I input tracks based on the different organ-stop colors intended by the composer. What I'm wondering is, are there certain principles to efficient sequencing, such as avoiding long stretches of "non-events" in a track? Is it better, say, to end a track at the last note event in a phrase, and then pick up with a different track or different segment when that particular "voice" starts again? Am I making sense? Thanks for any ideas or thoughts. Cheers, Mark __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.yahoo.com
