I haven't tried denemo with MIDI input yet; sounds like you are suggesting it's
definitely worth a try.  I just figured i'd still need to switch between
computer and music keyboards, often enough to diminish the advantage of "real
playing"

I have one; yes, very cheap (got mine for under $10, IIRC)  You do mean just the
midi-usb interface, right? (not including keyboard)

I found the menu!  It's under Notes/Rests --> Select Duration.  So, now i have
it mapped to the key combo of my choice and am looking forward to flying with
denemo !!! (that was the only missing component, but it was only missing in my
head!). Just simply an AWESOME app!!
