Support & Troubleshooting

In the Editor Commands window (Help -> Editor Commands), the description text in the bottom panel is black on a very dark gray background (dark mode). I have to select the text to read it. Also, when you open a Help panel (the floating panel you get when you click on a function in the rightmost panel) and select some text in it, then click outside that panel, the text reverts to its unselected color, but the selection highlight is almost the same color, so it becomes unreadable. I'm using V2.0.25787 on Catalina 10.15.5.

Just wondering about this. Given a pitchless snippet like '(q = = = ) What determines the pitch when auditioned? It's not preferences/audition, which says c4, but it's playing f4. I'm also puzzled by why the notation produced has a natural sign in front of the first note. I'm pretty sure it didn't used to do that. I'm using V2.0.25787 on Catalina. Thanks!

Hi, I just upgraded OpusModus from version 1.2 to version 2.0. Unfortunately when starting Opusmodus I get the following error message and nothing else happens: > Error: The function double is predefined by Opusmodus. > While executing: ccl::cerror-if-redefine-om, in process Opusmodus Extension Initialization(5). > Type cmd-/ to continue, cmd-. to abort, cmd-\ for a list of available restarts. > If continued: Replace the definition of double. > Type :? for other options. 1 > OK. before I installed V2, I deleted the folder OpusModus as recommended when upgrading from 1.2 to 2.0. But now I do not see any folder Opusmodus after installa…

I was wondering if it's possible to use midi velocity values 1-127 for the velocity parameter? I noticed I could use floating point. Any examples of using standard midi velocity instead of dynamic symbols? Thanks again, I'll try to keep these basic questions to a minimum if possible! 😏

Is there an EASY way to display the Diatonic notes of a given scale say D Dorian or whatever? I have come across the expand-chord function but can't figure out how to get to a different tonic to display the proper pitches. Thanks again!

Just bought into OM, excellent software love it. If you could be so kind, what is the key sequence to call up the search function? That last key symbol is a mystery to me. Thanks!

On May 9, I got an email from Opusmodus announcing V2.0.25750, with a bug fix. I currently have 2.025716 (on Mac Catalina). I've checked for updates in OM several times since then, but it always says that I'm up to date. Is there a problem in the update system? Thanks!

I am finding that the harmonic-progression function is not always predictable when using the steps option. For example: (append '(w) (harmonic-progression '(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7) '(c3 db3 eb3 e3 fs3 g3 a3 bb3) :size '4 :step '((3 1 3)))) > (w c3e3a3bb3 cs3fs3bb3c4 eb3g3c4cs4 e3a3cs4eb4 fs3bb3eb4e4 g3c4e4fs4 a3cs4fs4g4 bb3eb4g4a4) If you look at these chords, the steps are actually ordered ( 3 3 1) and not (3 1 3). Am I missing something? Thanks!

Hello how may i set up Set up Vienna Orchestra sample library to work with opusmodus and vice versa . Is there some templates ? Thank you patrick

Hello, I've noticed that, for example (rnd-round 1 15) returns floating point number instead of an integer. Could you please help? Thank you

Hello i'v transcribe the the example nbr 5 in How to in 100'' but it doesn't seem to work as written , I join the file as an attachment could you please help Thank you Patrick Choralis.opmo

Hi, First day with Opusmodus! I am trying to audition the choralis.opmo example via Reaper / Kontakt. I configured IAC, the port I named IAC1 shows up as a port in Reaper (it is enabled for midi + control) and the VSTi in Reaper is set to record / audion. I set the audition prefence in Opusmodus to my port (IAC1) but it still audiotions though the internal GM. I then tried adding port: "IAC" like this (ps 'gm :satb (list v1 v2 v3 v4) :flexible-clef nil :port "IAC1" :tempo 60) ) but then i get an error in OPUSMODUS compiler: > Error: OMN Parse Error: fail > While executing: omn-to-ast, in proces…

I didn't look closely enough at the system requirements for V2, and have found that it doesn't open any windows on Catalina (10.15.3). I'm aware of the CCL compiler problem, but I thought that had been fixed. Is there an expectation that V2 will run on Catalina soon?

I've just downloaded Opusmodus 2 for Catalina and got the dialog box asking for my registration information. I copied this from the registration email verbatim and pasted into each field as requested. When I hit the "unlock" button, it simply beeps at me and does nothing. What's going on?

Hi Everyone, I'm looking for a method/function which changes the velocity only for notes that are repeating. In other words, if I have a sequence like this: '(c4 eb4 g4 ab4 ab4 ab4 d4 eb4) I would like to be able to create a crescendo/decrescendo or set a custom velocity for just the Ab notes. In the past I've customised a Pattern Matching function from Stephane to change the velocity for specific note lengths: (defun velocity-map-omn (map omn &key (otherwise '-)) (do-verbose ("velocity-map-omn") (let ((plist (disassemble-omn omn))) (setf (getf plist :velocity) (pattern-map map (getf plist :length) :otherwise otherwise :…

Hello I would like to know what the more efficient way , when creating a lot of custom function to be included in the Extension folder: to group all the function in the same file or to distribute them over several files . Or one function by file or it doesn't matter Thank you Patrick

Hi, Please allow us to resell and transfer our license if we so choose. Thanks in advance.

I tried this score and when I evaluate it I do not have on the second flute stave the material of fluterev but two staves with fmel instead of one with feel and the other with fluterev .

Is there a way to restart the musicXML notation playback without evaluating the entire score again? Where is the list of keyboard shortcuts?

Hi everyone, Today I've been learning about the Counterpoint function in v2, I decided to start simple: (setf p01 '((-e e4 stacc g4 stacc b4 stacc s e4 fs4 leg e g4 leg fs4 b3 leg))) (setf p02 '(((leg -e b5 b5 a5 a5 eb5 q eb5 leg)))) (setf voices (counterpoint (list p01 p02) '( ((1 -) :methods (- -) :polyphony (7 o)) ((2 1) :methods (t-12 -) :polyphony (7 o)) ((2 1) :methods (t-5 r) :polyphony (7 ?)) ))) (ps 'gm :fl (list (assemble-voices 1 voices)) :cl (list (assemble-voices 2 voices)) :tempo '(80) :time-signature '(4 4) :start 1) In this example I would really like to change the "as4" in bar 3 but I ha…

Is there a way to reduce all of the note lengths equally, without editing each one individually in this snippet? I suppose I could change the audition tempo to make it play faster, but I would really like to reduce the note lengths programmatically, if that's possible. (rnd-sample-seq 4 '( (h. b4 tie) (q b4 h a4 tie) (q a4 e b4 a4 q g4 tie) (h g4 e fs4 e4) (h fs4 -q) (-q h g4 tie) (q g4 e fs4 g4 q a4 tie) (h a4 e c5 b4) (h_e c5 e b4) (e c5 a4 h b4 tie) (q. b4 -e q g4 tie) (h. g4) (h. fs4) (e g4 a4 h b4 tie) (e b4 a4 b4 g4 q a4 tie) (h a4 q a4) …

Hello! When printing a notated score or a document from Opusmodus, some amount of the content is cut out from left and right sides of the page. Maybe there is a setting somewhere that could be adjusted to enlarge the printable area? My system is Mojave 10.14.6. My preferred page size is A4. Thanks for help, Henry

Hi, I have a simple question, is it possible to display multiple scores in the workspace. Now, the old score gets overwritten with the new one which make things difficult to compare (I always make a screenshot as a workaround)? thanks! ole

Hello, I'm currently trying to leverage my knowledge by digging into the forum and tutorials. I've tried to copy/paste some examples to in a "test and learn" process, but always fails on not understandable errors: After some research on the forum, I had the explanation: My questions are : What is involved in the buggy parsing ? What chars should we delete/replace to make copy/paste work ? Is there any simple process to transform the omn source code published on this forum, so that we will be sure it will be parsed correctly by Opus Modus ? Thanks, best !
