A TRK file may also be a track-to-staff mapping file created by MakeMusic Finale, a popular music notation program. It contains staff configuration data that Finale references when you open a .MID (MIDI) file. Finale uses this data to translate the audio data your MID file contains into notation.
More Information

These mapping settings include the top-to-bottom order of the resulting Finale staves, staff transpositions, clefs, and the distance between staves.
