Dear All, I am writing a new email regarding something I spotted in Guy’s example. When I played the Midi file through Frescobaldi, it started counting 3/4 beats as if the pickup beat was beat 1. Is this the normal way Midi files are produced, or specifically a Frescobaldi issue, and can it be fixed?
