Slide diatonic+tremolo (or octave). Has it been done?

Re: Chromatic with Offset Tonics Double Lead Tone (COT-DLT)
Note that in the flat-slide version (above), both layers have three possible draw-bends per octave. Compare this with PowerChromatic, which has four, and with Solo and Classical, each of which have two.

... and/or create MIDI files!
I seem to recall that currently there are algorithms that convert piano recordings to MIDI files. I am not a programmer or a sound engineer, but I would guess that some of the code could be transferable.

Sheet music, tabs, and then THIS ...
In the 80s and 90s we talked a lot about "multimedia" because technology was making it more accessible -- for creation and consumption. Now we take for granted that text, graphics and audio can be combined for more powerful experiences. Here are some superb example of this. https://youtu.be/uADNbTnJ...
