A second attempt.

This time I wrote the output to a .txt file using the cat command.  
When copying from the web browser, half of it was always missing.

I also swapped the midi channels which meant that this time notes were not played in the drumkit.

“Please, simplify the patterns to the minimum” Then the error does not occur. The problem only starts when many notes arrive…
