GEN-TENDENCY bug fix. RND-WALK function name changed to GEN-WALK. JP

New functions: gen-tendency n values &key variance type list seed rnd-variance value variance &key type seed Best wishes, JP

New: rnd-walk n &key backward forward step start seed [Function] Arguments and Values: n an integer. Amount of intervals to generate. backward a floating-point. The default is 0.5. Maximum 1.0. forward a floating-point. The default is 0.5. Maximum 1.0. step an integer (an interval). The default is 1. start an integer or pitch symbol. seed an integer or NIL. The default is NIL. Description: This function returns a series of intervals of give…

Out Now: harmonic-progression degree scale &key (size 3) (step 2) root row variant relative (chord t) (flatten t) seed rnd-sample-seq n sequence &key section seed and documentation fixes.

CHORD-INVERSION now with correct octave rotation. chord-inversion n chord &key list root [Function] Arguments and Values: n inversion (rotation) number. chord a chord. list rotation in a sequence. root root chord and inversions together. Description: The function CHORD-INVERSION will generate all the inversions (rotations) of a chord up to and including N. For example, the first inversion of C major will give us: (chord-inversion 1 'c4e4g4) => e…

We are proud to announce 7 new functions and great additions to tonality tools. New: GET-HARMONIC-PATH (sequence &key resolution loop unique sort remove row chord seed) Returns a pitch sequence (tonality, scale) made up of an omn sequence or any number of voices (instruments). DO-SECTION (section function sequence) Distributes an operation over a range of lists. Binary list section returns a processed list if 1. If 0 the list is unchanged. A list section with symbols '- and 'x returns a processed list if 'x. If '- the list is unchanged. DO-TIMELINE (list function &key…

NEW: DO-TIMELINE The function DO-TIMELINE distributes an operation over a number of bars, if x. If - the bar is unchanged.

PARTIAL-DIVIDE document fix.

We are excited to announce new functions in Opusmodus and we hope you will find them helpful in your work. NEW: Spectral Composition Tools ;;; Spectral Tools (import-spectral-spear "Imports spectral data from the SPEAR application.") (highest-partial "Returns the highest partial value of a given collection of partials data.") (lowest-partial "Returns the lowest partial value of a given collection of partials data.") (normalize-partials "Returns a float-vector with the amplitudes normalized so that their magnitudes add to 1.0.") (partial-divide "Divide a list of partials into sublists of a given length.") (partial-row "Converts fr…

New: OSX 10.11 Change the way we do pane titlebar highlighting. In the LCI, explicitly request monospaced numbers in the system font. Fix to MIDI and LCI panes. One Note Dynamic NIENTE: 0<ppppp 0<pppp 0<ppp 0<pp 0<p 0<mp 0<mf 0<f 0<ff 0<fff 0<ffff 0<fffff ppppp>0 pppp>0 ppp>0 pp>0 p>0 mp>0 mf>0 f>0 ff>0 fff>0 ffff>0 fffff>0 0<ppppp>0 0<pppp>0 0<ppp>0 0<pp>0 0<p>0 0<mp>0 0<mf>0 0<f>0 0<ff>0 0<fff>0 0<ffff>0 0<fffff>0 0<ppppp> 0&l…

New:Don't deselect text on Evaluate Expression - selected snippets or expression will stay selected after evaluation.

New: Additional 'Meter' option to MIDI to Score dialog window. 'Meter' set to NONE will create just one OMN list for each instrument - without bar lines. This option will help you to get the original performance from a MIDI file into an OMN script (especially MIDI files with many overlapping notes crossing the bar lines).

Fix to french contextual menu. New: Hertz conversion functions and HARMONIC-SERIES - with thanks to Alain Jacomet. Minor document corrections.

Fixed an issue that made quicklisp installation not work.Fixed an issue causing memory corruption.

Fix to PITCH-EXPANSION-VARIANT Attributes num now from num0 to num11

Protection added: Signal a continuable error when the user attemptes to redefine a function that is part of Opusmodus.

Export Midi To Score is back.

Please at your earliest convenience download the latest update with the critical GET-TIME-SIGNATURE function fixed.

New function: GEN-SURROUND thanks to Achim Bornhoeft INTERVAL-VARIANT INTEGER-VARIANT Improvement to snippet display (time signature grouping). Fix to library tonality names.

New: INFINITY-SERIES MESSIAEN-PERMUTATION STRAWINSKI-ROTATION Thanks to Jesper Elen Midi conversions: MIDI-TO-PITCH MIDI-TO-INTEGER MIDI-TO-INTERVAL Fix to ambitus system with midi rage 0-127 Change to System Functions structure. Fix to ttrem notation display and Grand Staff layout.

I just want to thank you all for you hard work. I have lived and breath Opusmodus for a long time now. It is a wonderful music tool in more or less every aspect. Regards Lasse

The Opusmodus 1.1 update is recommended for all Opusmodus users. This update: Interface stability and compatibility. Listener speed improvement. DEF-SCORE performance improvement. System optimisation and revision of random functions - less CONS and LOOPs: (different results with set :seed may occur). Additional layout and improvement to MusicXML notation display. Added Layout options: :ignore-velocity :ignore-tempo :ignore-time-signature :ignore-bars :ignore-clef :cautionary-accidentals :natural-accidentals :all-accidentals :section option added to many more functions. MERGE-VOICES, MAKE-OMN and DISASSEMBLE-OMN functions are performing correctly now. Revision to System F…
