 For Your Information:

	synthLAB:
	- Tempo display doesn't reflect tempo variations coded in sequence!
	- Tempo display is limited to 99. MF2SL takes care of that.
	- Bar display is always calculated to half-note so you must arrange midi
	score to half-note before convert to synthLAB.

	midi:
	- MusiX is based on 0.06 version of Midi file (March 1, 1988).
	- If you find a more recent version please send me a disk or paper list!
	- MusiX does not manage MasterTracksPro or MusicWriter files because
 	these applications can Import/Export midi files directly (MTP 1.04 & MW 2.03).
	- MusiX follows MasterTracksPro midi conventions: Track zero contains all	
	conductor events and track names are notated as generic text event but
	track name events. If you know why write me�
	- Midi Analyzer manages only format one midi files because there is none
	track number reference in format zero midi files and format two is never used.
	If Midi Analyzer returns back immediately without analyse, your file is:
	Not a midi file or a format zero midi file or a format two midi file.
	- Midi Analyzer asks "mucho" free memory (192k minimum). Take care of that.
	(I did a deal between Memory & Speed. Speed won ;).
	- Today Midi Analyzer accepts up to 32000 events. There is none direct
	relation between midi file size and number of events herein (hum� sounds 
	not like plain vanilla English ;). Do not try to load a >100k size midi file.
	- Today Midi Analyzer is limited up to 16 tracks.
