But what are the guide lines for that map?
The "green" line represents such a guide line.

Agreed!

Another parameter is the intended target device resp. instrument.
But this is not a real problem in my view.

like e.g. with tools like Cakewalk and the built in CAL.
My problem is really the initial map!

Many thanks for your answer
