ferraus midi legato

Extend notes to the next onset

Synopsis

ferraus midi legato <input> [options] [-o <output>]

Lengthens every note to the next note-on in its track and channel (chords move together), leaving --gap of space. The last notes keep their length.

Connect every note to the next

Nearly legato with a 20 ms gap

ferraus midi legato pad.mid --gap 20ms -o pad-legato.mid

Legato on track 1 only, leaving a twentieth of a beat between notes

ferraus midi legato song.mid --gap 0.05b --tracks 1 -o song-legato.mid

Flag	Type	Default	Meaning
`--gap`	time	`0ms`	Space left before the next note (10ms, or 0.05b in beats)
`--tracks`	list	—	1-based track numbers to change, comma separated (default: every track)

Every command also accepts the global options (-o, --json, --dry-run, --overwrite, --progress, ...). See Global options.

Forgetting that outputs are never overwritten: pass --overwrite or a new -o path when re-running.
Beat-based times (4b, 1/4) need a tempo: pass --bpm or write 4b@120.
