It's the Thrill of the Fight
Here's a more complex track than Ode To Joy: Eye of the Tiger.
I really like what is happening on the right half of the screen. All sorts of interesting patterns are emerging.

Changed the code so it creates lines of different colors for the octaves.
Here's one where they are placed on top of one another:
And another where they are combined into one easy to manage loan, I mean image. This is how I had originally intended the piece to end up and will now need to adjust to suit all types of midi files.Just a quick pic of the code and score. The similarities are obvious so we can see how the code takes the score and places it on screen. Next up: making that s*** look sick.
Managed to split the notes according to their octave. this allows no overlapping (vertically) of notes. This makes it easier to read.
Also added a check for Note On and Note Off functions and only draws on Note On functions. This stop the score doubling up.
I also have begun to play around with how it be displayed visually. This one is with low opacity rects rther than ellipses. The overlapping effect is really nice.
I have got the XLSreader working which will read in the midi values once they are converted to XLS format. This is done through a program I have downloaded.
Here is a quick tester for Ode To Joy. Colors are very basic but distinguish between note differences. Timing is also shown through spacing.
Like I said, very basic tester but now that this is working it should only be a matter of mucking around with the visuals.
One problem I have already seen is that unless the midi file differs between bass and treble notes then they just get overlayed.
