Re: There is no key signature in the generated Midi file ?

[Teerilahti Esko]

Always something missing, when I try to be short.

I also have there definition

 \language ”suomi”  (finnish)

so ”h" is same as b, please do not stick to that.

I didn’t yet get the lilymidi to work (missing midi.py, for some reason)

I looked at the hex dump, and Yes, there is 

FF 59 02 03 = Key signature ,  3 sharps = A major.

However, I still do not understand why Finale Songwriter or MidiYogi cannot find it.

They can find it from midifiles, produced by other tools.

There might be something else ’non-standard’ which makes those to ignore some of the information.

Desperately looking for proper midi file analyser (for Mac)

Oh dear :)

I'm not really interested in fixing this up since you probably missed
the point anyway:

...

Did you bother to check this?

OP did not inspect the midi, OP did mention that the LP midi imported into
Finale does not have a signature.

BTW: The key signature is in the track, as it should be. It imports
correctly into RoseGarden (with signature).
