is there a vst for midi statistics

[neverbefore]

In an audio editor I can load a wav and get a bunch of statistics about it - RMS, length, peak value etc. Is there something similar for midi files where I can get stats on things like - highest and lowest velocity, a count of how many C's/D's, distribution of note lengths etc

In Reaper you can open the midi editor and select Event List. This is like a database view of midi data, if you want to get stats copy that into any spreadsheet application and have at it.

sadly does not work - will not paste into text editor, or the two spreadsheet porograms I have. Will paste into the Midi editor event view ie itself but not the others

Wow sorry about that, it certainly does not work like I was expecting.
It certainly looks like a comma separated database, but apparently not.
Perhaps via scripting it might be possible.
No matter what I tried there is just nothing in the copy buffer when trying to paste.
It might be worth trying to find something that can convert binary back to text.
Good luck.

p.s. I did some searching and perhaps this might help convert midi files to CSV files.

There is a solution someone mentioned in the reaper forum. Use 'raw midi view' rather than the event viewer. found in the midi editor view menu. that info can be copied.
