A sequencer which records MPE?

@tja : BPM means beats per minute. That means the same as quarter notes per minute in 4/4.

At 60 BPM, a quarter note lasts one second (in 4/4)

Bars are irrelevant to this calculation.

Audio Evolution Mobile Studio is a DAW and not a sequencer but
there were some interactions about MPE with the developer of Audio Evolution Mobile @dwrae and @Matt_Fletcher_2000 that showed his apps MIDI behavior worked for most things for MPE data input.

https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/28106/audio-evolution-mobile-daw-now-officially-supports-the-iphone

Most older MIDI Apps accepted up to 16 channels being recorded on a single channel due to General MIDI data patterns where a track might get assigned to a General MIDI model.

I'm not sure if the extra critical details have been added on not.
Worth checking out to record MPEand cut 'n paste the data.

@DWRAE reports on a PM:

Audio Evolution Mobile Studio does. I can for instance use ROLI products to record MPE. If you enable 'Keep channel information' in the MIDI input dialog, then it will keep the MPE information. This goes automatic for some ROLI products.

Check it out at a cost of $8 for a DAW. This app has delivered 13 updates in the last 6 months mostly driven buy requests from this forum. It has a rich history as a MIDI focused DAW going back over 15 years so the MIDI details tend to be top notch and enhancement requests/bug fixes get addressed quickly.

With all the focus on the new DAW's a gem can get lost in the "All-in-One" focus of KEW, NS2, BM3 and some of us really want a capable audio/MIDI multi-track environment that works well and doesn't cost so much with features we might never touch: mostly people that still hear music on live instruments but often need MIDI to cover the drums, bass or keyboard parts or just trigger audio for background singers or horns.

PS This app does an excellent job with importing SF2's and offers some great desktop quality FX units for $2 each from ToneBoosters.

I need to re-visit it and check on AUv3 stability (it needed to be added because the app comes from non-Apple platforms historically) and AU MIDI status.

@tja this....
In musical terms, BPM refers to tempo. Time signature refers to how many beats per bar and is independent of tempo. For instance, a song might have a tempo/bpm of 60, and two bars of 4/4 time followed by a bar of 3/4 time - every quarter note has the same duration, in this case one second each for eleven seconds.

The other thing about low ppqn are tuplets. For instance an eighth note triplet is 1/3 of a quarter note. With the 48ppqn, eighth and sixteenth triplets are possible, but 32nd triplets are not.

I struggled with time signatures and beats and bars as well when implementing them in Xequence, I'm surprised nobody complained so far and apparently I got it all correct by accident

I wonder if the best wouldn't be something virtual for MPE, like a function instead of dots. It would be more accurate and easier data wise to record and store. An automation MIDI function.

I did that once in C# to trace rails on typographic maps. The user was giving only dots and the application was using bezier curves to tie them together and display them.
