I seem to remember reading somewhere that when converting General MIDI
.MID files from the PC to Yaroze SEQ format, you need to make sure
that you use a seqencer program to move the drums from track 10(?),
which is what General MIDI expects all drums to be on, to another track
and somewhat different format that Yaroze SEQ expects them to be on.

WHERE did I read that?  I read the "Sound" sections of all three
manuals (RED, YELLOW, GREEN), but I can't re-find that info!

I was hoping that someone would come up with a general PC program
to automagiaclly do this mapping, but so far nada.  If I could
only remember what the "drum" rule was, I'd break down and fix up
my nice MIDI's by hand!  HELP!

Any ideas?
