[jmsl] Exporting to Midi

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

I'm trying to develop both midi (only export for compatibility) as well as 
xml (export and import for editing).
Is there way to export the entire sequential collection to midi (ByteArray), 
so I can pass it to php in non-realtime, instead of saving it to file?
Thanks,

Chi
