You can turn that off:
%%MIDI gchordoff
I like having the MIDI to proofread with -- I can read music, too, but
following the original while listening to the MIDI is easier on the
eyes than looking back and forth between the original and the one I've
typeset. And I frequently typeset music I don't know, so that I can
play it with my group.
I also recommend using:
%%MIDI ratio 3 1
since otherwise the abc '>' construct is given an interpretation
that's idiomatic to some style the abc2midi author uses all the time.
