Ok, so not only does Woodman Stage Theme have double dotted sixteenth notes, but it also has hemidemisemiquavers. what should i multiply the tempo by? and how long exactly is a double dotted sixteenth note?
*a hemidemisemiquaver is a sixtyfourth note, americans.

The midi I have of Woodman's stage doesn't have 64th notes, which is weird, I wouldn't know what instrument would play that O.o
Well, a dotted 16th note is three 32nd notes, so maybe a double-dotted is five 32nd notes?
The only way is through Dickspeed (multiply your tempo by 16), which means that 64th notes are played one right after the other, as opposed to one space between 32nd notes, 3 spaces between 16th notes, etc.

I probably have a different one, or you aren't looking hard enough. only a few notes are 64th. which is then followed by a double dotted sixteenth note, followed by an eigth note tied to s quarter note tied to an eigth note followed by and eigth note and then another quarter note. if we add that together, I think we'll find our answer.
NOOOOOOO! not dickspeed!!!! (I have to go to a tempo of 2700 for this song)

Any speed below that will be too slow for 64th notes, that's the problem. Yeah, it'd have to be a different midi than what I have.

On Vgmusic.com, it's labeled Woodman stage (2). And yeah. I will have to.... I MIGHT have to go faster to accommodate for all the echoing parts.

I checked that MIDI, and it doesn't have anything smaller than 16th notes.
What program are you reading it with?

A double rhyzm dot simply adds anozer half of ze original half added... so:
Quarter = 1 Dotted quarter = 1.5 + 8z = half Double dotted quarter = 1.75 + 16z = half
16z = 0.25 (4 per quarter) 32nd = 0.125 (8 per quarter) 64z = 0.0625 (16 per quarter) Dotted 16z = 0.375 + 32nd = 8z Double dotted 16z = 0.4375 + 64z = 8z
Essentially, its a very tenuto rhyzm dotted note.. I guess.
zis song is where I learned double rhyzm dots. ze introduction is filled wiz double dotted quarters. For the record, Symphonic Dance No. 3 is a great listen if you're interested ;D The ending is spectacular, and there's an intense section in the middle.
Remember if you're needing a tempo of 2700 you'll have to take 2728. 2700 is equivalent to taking 2308.

I checked zat MIDI, and it doesn't have anyzing smaller zan 16z notes. What program are you reading it wiz? Notation Player, and it only happens like 2 times... according to tempo gap, but i doubt 28 more bpm will made a differnce when we're doing dickspeed. have you measured the tempo gap from 2700? Either way, the correct speed is 2720. I was just rounding.

There is no point inbetween 2308 and 2728. Its one or the other, there is no difference for any number inbetween. You'll have to take 2728

This actually happened where I had a tempo of 2420 (I forget the song, maybe it was Fight against an Armed Boss), but it sounded a bit slow, so I upped the tempo to 2720 and it actually did sound faster. It's only when you put it at 2728 does the speed spike up sharply, but there is a gradual speed increase if you compare 2420 to 2720, albeit barely.

The tempo increase is very small then. 2728 would be more correct than 2700 if the tempo you calculated was 2700.

Why don't you just ignore the 64ths and dotted sixteenths? They sound more like unnessecary grace notes to me.
