Python interface for outputting MIDI files or text that's readable by audio programs

Question

I am looking for a python package or library that will allow me to programmatically output a file format (e.g. MIDI) that can be read by audio/sound processing programs, like LogicPro or iDrum. What are the best options for this?

Answer 1

A large number of possibilities are listed here, especially under the "Midi Mania" header. For your requirements, and the various packages' descriptions, it seems to me that pythonmidi might suit you best, but I have no first-hand experience with it.
