question about MIDI

I have 1 question regarding Midi: when I play an imported MIDI, what is known about timings?
I need to know if notes are DeltaTimed, and if I can be sure that a certain note which should be played "3" seconds after the music has started will be played 3 seconds after the "start music event" was processed.
I mean, I can accept "glitches" when the music starts but I would really like that notes that are played after were not affected.

Plus, i've found a NICE midi editor: it's bare to the bone, but it allows for more people to work on the same file in realtime... Collaborative music in sight :D

The timing of the notes are imported so playback should definitely stay in sync after music has started. If you find any problems with timing, just post the midi-file here or PM me and I'll take a look.

And thanks for the info about the midi-editor!
