thanks!

Well, since all startTimes in SimpleMIDIFile are absolute, inserting
a silence would mean simply not adding anything to that specific
startTime. Or is that not what you mean?

No. Not a bad idea though. I could extend the method to accept note
names as well as note numbers in the noteNumber arg.

If you would want to add a "dummy" event at a silence time, you could
consider creating a second track in the SimpleMIDIFile and put notes
that are supposed to be rests in there. Then you can mute that track
when importing to a midi sequencer, or choose to change the rests to
audible notes again by changing their track number if needed. Adding
a note with velocity 0 could also be an option, but that could cause
trouble with some sequencers, since noteOn messages with velocity 0
are usually interpreted as being noteOff messages. You'd need to test
that for your specific case.
cheers,
Wouter
