// 85 bpm, 4/4, key D minor. Source: mcgill + midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: pitch bends are ignored
// note: sustain pedal (CC 64) lengthens the held notes
// note: duplicate parts dropped: ch 5 "OVERDRIVE" overdriven guitar (copy of ch 8 "OVERDRIVE" overdriven guitar, 0.5 beats early)
// note: Full arrangement: all 76 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level; ghost notes are separate "_soft" parts. Source detail keeps the original performance.
