<div>I tried again today. I recorded a new midi file and then loaded it with the midifile-read-help-patch.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>After loading the file I get:</div>

<div>So it must have recorded something. But when I imoprt the recorded midi file i ableton, then I only see 4 different , very short notes (c1, c#1, d1 and g1) at the very beginning of the piano roll. But of course I would expect the notes being all over the time line. Hm, might there something be wrong with the timing information?</div>
<div>When I recorded the file, I sent the 2,005 message into the right inlet of [metro], but that is correct, isn't it?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>When playing the file in the midifile-help-patch I can see the end-bang when [midifile] has finished playing.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best, Jakob</div>

<br/>
The last line shows the track chink is 35 bytes long. Did you play it<br/>
to the end? The third outlet of [midifile] emits a bang when it gets<br/>
to the end.<br/>
If you waited a while after starting to record there may be a long<br/>
pause before something happens.<br/>
The [dump 0( message should output the entire track to the Pd window.<br/>
