there are two different conventions for middle C (MIDI note 60) - one is to call it C3, one is to call it C4, and different DAWs use different conventions. The DAW I used when I created the code that named the notes (over 20 years ago!) was Cakewalk. No idea what that used. In any case, this looks like a bug that no one has spotted in a long time! The code calculating the octave number is just doing: int octave = noteNumber / 12;
