SYNOPSIS
use MIDI::Ngram;
my $mng = MIDI::Ngram->new(
in_file => [ 'eg/twinkle_twinkle.mid' ],
ngram_size => 3,
patches => [qw( 68 69 70 71 72 73 )],
random_patch => 1,

my $analysis = $mng->process;
my $playback = $mng->populate;
$mng->write;DESCRIPTION
MIDI::Ngram parses a given list of MIDI files and finds the top repeated note phrases.

METHODS
new()
$mng = MIDI::Ngram->new(%arguments);Create a new MIDI::Ngram object.
process()
my $analysis = $mng->process;Find all ngram phrases and return the note analysis.
