// Breathe Again — Toni Braxton
// 77 bpm, 4/4, key C major. Source: midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: bank select 127 (Roland MT-32 map) read through the MT-32 patch table: ch 2 "#FRETLESS1" Fretless 1 -> fretless bass
// note: duplicate parts dropped: ch 5 "FINGERDBAS" electric bass finger (copy of ch 2 "#FRETLESS1" fretless bass)
// note: Full arrangement: all 86 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level. 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 · [...]/2 spreads a riff over 2 bars.
// A part's distinct bars are riffs (A, B, C...) played in order: edit a riff to change every repeat.
