Johan Liljencrants will certainly be missed.  He has provided us with
many useful tools for working with mechanical music machines.  In my
opinion he was truly a genius.  Others have already paid him tributes
and I will not repeat them.

I did want to mention my favorite development of his and that is his
MIDI file editor called Rollook.  It is a software program he designed
especially for arranging MIDI files for mechanical music machines.
I really like the vertically scrolling piano roll.  The markers and
note manipulating tools are very helpful for arranging files for
machines with limited scales.

The last I checked it is still available on his web site.  You can
Google his name to get to his web site.  If you are into arranging MIDI
files I would recommend trying Rollook.  It does have some bugs but is
still very useful.  Also, I have used it on Windows XP and earlier but
I cannot get it to open in Windows 7.

I would like to add that Johan was a gentleman who was always very glad
help and answered E-mails promptly and cordially.  I was very saddened
to hear of his loss.

Sincerely,
Ted Waflart
