I am trying to set up a way that MIDI note events can be recorded within csound so they can be recalled later.

Looking through the manual didn't yield an opcode that seems to write a standard MIDI file. 
I have looked at the fouti/foutir opcodes and they seem usable for my purpose but involve quite a few contortions. 
A straight midifile structure would be more desirable.

Any obvious solutions?
