// Liverpool and All the World! — The Beatles
// 136 bpm, 4/4, key F major. Source: midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: track names are the Roland MT-32 patch names at their program numbers ("Bass" on 69, "E. Guitar" on 62), so with no bank select the whole file is read through the MT-32 patch table: ch 2 "Main" Elec Piano 1 -> epiano1; ch 3 "Bass" Slap Bass 2 -> slap bass 2; ch 4 "E. Guitar" Elec Gtr 2 -> overdriven guitar
// note: duplicate parts dropped: ch 4 "E. Guitar" overdriven guitar (copy of ch 2 "Main" epiano1)
// note: Full arrangement: all 39 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level; ghost notes are separate "_soft" parts. Source detail keeps the original performance.

// Notation: c3@3 lasts 3 steps · ~ is a rest · [c3,e3] is a chord · "a, b" plays two voices at once.
// A part's distinct bars are riffs (A, B, C...) played in order: edit a riff to change every repeat.
// bass · slap bass 2 · "Bass"
