Detailed Description

An event inside a track.

A MIDI track is made out of events. This class is an abstract event.

There are three types of events

• Meta events: Not sent to the synchronizer
• Channel events: Sent to a synchronizer
• System Exclusive events: Events exclusive to specific hardware, ignored by libmidireader

Each event contains a "delta time" field. This is the number of ticks to wait after the previous event before this event is executed. A delta time of 0 means that this event is to be executed as the same time as the previous event. See MIDIHeader for how long each tick is.
