// 122 bpm, 4/4, key D major. Source: midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: pitch bends are ignored
// note: ch 12 "Lead Guitar" named as a guitar, played on overdriven guitar (its lead 2 sawtooth patch is not one)
// note: duplicate parts dropped: ch 4 "Bass" fretless bass (copy of ch 3 "Bass" electric bass pick); ch 12 "Lead Guitar" overdriven guitar (copy of ch 7 "Lead Guitar" distortion guitar)
// note: Full arrangement: all 139 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level; ghost notes are separate "_soft" parts. Source detail keeps the original performance.
