Many DAWs export note-off velocity at the exact same tick as the next note-on. In Lua, iterating through this can trigger a note-on and note-off in the same frame, causing "clicks" or silent notes. Fix: Add a minimum duration filter (e.g., ignore notes shorter than 10ms).
At its core, midi2lua is a parser and converter. It takes a binary Standard MIDI File (.mid) and translates it into a human-readable (and machine-executable) Lua table. midi2lua
A standard MIDI file contains tracks, channels, notes (pitch, velocity, start time, duration), control changes (CC), pitch bends, and tempo maps. Lua, being a lightweight scripting language, uses tables as its primary data structure. midi2lua creates a structured representation of the MIDI data so that your Lua script can "play back" the sequence programmatically. Many DAWs export note-off velocity at the exact
Large MIDI files can generate huge Lua tables. Advanced converters use Delta Time (time since last event) instead of absolute time. This reduces file size significantly because integers are smaller. At its core, midi2lua is a parser and converter
