Adapting MIDI Files for Street Organ
By Arthur Nichols

I want to transpose music to MIDI files for a 26-note Alderman scale
organ.  Are any instructions available which outlines the use of
Cakewalk or other music notation programme specifically to transpose
music for a street organ?.

Is it possible to superimpose a template of my organ scale onto the
piano roll view?  Also, what is the purpose of "CALs"?

I have downloaded the Cakewalk manual, which contains far more
information than I will ever need, and I need advice as to what is
relevant.

I am told that it is easy and can be explained in a short time; by
reading the manual I find that this is far from the case.  Perhaps
I am getting too many senior moments?!  Any advice greatly welcomed.
