// 102 bpm, 4/4, key F# minor. Source: midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: pitch bends are ignored
// note: ch 16 "BassBoost (GS)" named as a bass, played on electric bass finger (its lead 1 square patch is not one)
// note: sustain pedal (CC 64) lengthens the held notes
// note: duplicate parts dropped: ch 16 "BassBoost (GS)" electric bass finger (copy of ch 1 "Base Line (GS)" electric bass pick)
// note: Full arrangement: all 174 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level; ghost notes are separate "_soft" parts. Source detail keeps the original performance.
