Support & Troubleshooting

Hi, is anyone having the same problem as me when opening version 3? the file is locked, I have to close and open again.

Dear All, I was trying some old codes and this started to bug... The length-map :repeat keyword no longer works... what´s happening ? I have a lot of files using this... (setf v1mat-a (make-omn :length rv1 :pitch pit-chmd1 ;repitch1 :span :length :velocity (length-map len-map2 rv1 :otherwise '(mf) :repeat t ) :articulation (length-map len-map1 rv1 :otherwise '(ord) :repeat t ))) Error: Unexpected keyword :repeat which is not one of (:otherwise :rnd :group :section :exclude :seed). 1 (continue) Ignore the unknown keyword :repeat. 2 (abort) Return to top loop level 0.

Hi I've been trying to get this new function to work, based on the example given ... but cannot. What have I missed here? (setf intro '(:c I vi IV V)) (setf verse '(:c I V vi IV ii)) (setf chorus '(:am i iv VI III iv i V7)) (setf bridge '(:eb IV V7/V V7 I vi ii V7 I)) (setf outro '(:c vi IV I ii V7 I IV I)) (setf song-progression (append intro verse chorus bridge outro)) (setf attr (make-diatonic-chord-attribute song-progression)) (setf song-chords (diatonic-chord song-progression :inv '(0 -1 0 -1 ; Introduction inversions -2 0 -1 0 -1 0 -1 0 -1 -2 ; Verse inversions …

This is my first attempt at building a piano piece with strange chords. I will add a right hand melody later, but, I am stuck! Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? Everything goes well until the last "make-omn" generation. I can't seem to marry the rhythm to the chords... can someone tell me how to fix this? I've tried OM GPT but it doesn't compile either with its suggestions. Thanks! ;; JG Jazz Piano Test 1 ;; Create 16 chords to use (setf chords '(e3a3bb3e4 d3g3gs3d4 g3b3cs4f4 fs3b3c4e4 ds3g3gs3d4 ds3fs3gs3d4 eb3f3g3 b3c4g4 b3cs4e4g4 b3cs4ds4a4 d4e4f4b4 ds4gs4a4d5 b3d4ds4g4b4 b4d5ds5f5g5 cs4ds4f4g4a4 d5ds5fs5a4)) ;; Se…

Greetings all: I have an issue that I just can't figure out. (not enough coffee?) I am working with Opus (East West VSTi) - and the Hollywood Solo Violin. My quest is to program a sound set and get the instrument to key-switch - a work in progress there. Nothing seems to work on this so far. HOWEVER. in this process I am recording output in MIDI from the Notation Viewer playback (Obey Ports). And, I get the following result: I cannot figure out why this would be. It seems like a bug to me, but who knows? With the low velocity it seems like a midi-note-off command. Here is the code: ;;;-------…

Hi, ;given pattern in c-major (setf test-pattern-c-major '(c4 d4 e4 f4 g4 a4 b4 c5)) ; required pattern: modified given pattern with notes only being part of a-major, no other pitch shifting : -> (cs4 d4 e4 fs4 gs4 a4 b4 cs5) . pattern remains more or less in the same pitch range, only notes are modified not being part of a-major ;test: (tonality-map '(major :root 'a4) test-pattern-c-major) ; result: (a4 b4 cs5 d5 e5 fs5 gs5 gs5) : a-major ok, but pitch shifting of entire pattern This result is not what I am looking for. I tried several tonality-map operation with different parameters without success. I …

hello, I regularly have a problem with my mouse cursor which gets stuck between composer and listener, I have to leave OM to get out of it. Could anyone help me get out of this window without leaving OM?

There is a function "expand-tonality" that gives me the following result: (expand-tonality ' (c4 messiaen-mode4)) => (c4 cs4 d4 f4 fs4 g4 gs4 b4). Is there a reverse function? That is, the input would be the notes and the output would be the name of the scale/tonality? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi is there a way to zoom in so text size increases? And maybe a keyboard shortcut. Thanks in advance Anders

Greetings: I am working with the most recent release of Dorico. Opusmodus .xml output does not fully load in Dorico 5 - only 6 out of 11 measures, for example, the remaining are left blank - empty measures it looks like. The same .xml file does open in the most recent release of Sibelius. It shows all of the measures, but the notation is not "perfect" - as it is rendered better within Opusmodus. The .xml output has been created this way: (compile-score 'section1 :output :musicxml :file "RST/TRIO/172") Not sure if the issue is with the way the .xml is being written within Opusmodus, or if it is an issue with import in the sc…

Greetings: Working with the probability weighting control in random functions displays that they may be some value in revisiting the code to see if there may be a way to improve it. What I am seeing: (setf instr2 (flatten (rnd-unique n-bars pats2 :prob 0.89))) Here "pats2" is a field of 32 values from 1 to 32. "n-bars" is 11 in this case. A return of this function: (26 27 16 19 31 17 20 29 24 6 5) With the weighting of 0.89, I do not expect to see 6 or 5 in the result. In fact, with a higher number, such as 0.9, low numbers are returned often, but the result "should" be from only the higher numbers? If on…

Hi, I want to learn all the valuable information available in the Assistant PDF-files of Opusmodus. How can I export all these files to my iPad. I just want to read and learn while traveling without the need to drag my Computer along.

I've been playing this evening with a a third party library in quicklisp and had problems getting it running. After a bit of troubleshooting, I realised the reason for the failures was that it needed a newer version of the bordeaux-threads library than OpusModus is shipped with, it looks like OpusModus has 0.8.5 with the third party library requiring a minimum version of 0.8.6 which has new functionality relating to semaphores. I'm a windows user so I've proved my theory through by updating the built in version of the bordeaux-threads library by replacing the files in 'C:\Program Files\Opusmodus\Resources\third-party\bordeaux-threads' with the newer versions. …

Hello, opusmodus cannot recall my user function from userfunction.lisp after upgrading , either by dragging my custom userfunction.lisp in user source >extention or by copying the content in the new opus modus folder on the empty userfunction.lisp file . When i go to window menu > loading user source , it load it with no error message . Any ideas ? Thank you Patrick Mimran

Is there perhaps a MIDI export function? Something like the opposite of midi-to-omn or midi-to-score, which expects a snippet/score and exports a MIDI file? I would like to export a bunch of MIDI files in one go... BTW: In Opusmodus 2, for exporting individual files we had a menu File > Export. Where is the equivalent in Opusmodus 3? Thanks!

I just tried using Opusmodus 3, but unfortunately there is a principle problem for me: it prevents me from loading any of me pre-existing libraries, which provide a lot of functionality already, but which I created for Opusmodus 2 (libraries like tot, cluster-engine, cluster-rules, cm-patterns etc.). It appears this is caused by the switch of Lisp compilers, and that the new version -- now based on LispWorks -- has been "delivered" without ADSF support. However, it appears this can be changed easily for Opusmodus by adjusting the parameters for creating the delivery to :KEEP-MODULES T (see docs). This is also what the error message I get is saying. &…

I found some outcome, which I don't understand: 1) The * in the methods seems to work not correctly with oddmeter bars (see start of Viola bar 5 ff) 2) If I use la2 and la3 in global methods it seems not working correct (see bar bar 11 ff Viola) Wouldn't it perhaps even be an interesting possibility if you could shift certain parts of the voices by rhythmic values in a controlled way, so that phrases could start earlier or later? Or is that already possible? thank you very much best wishes (progn (init-seed 73549) (setf seq1 '(s c4 mf stacc e. cs4 mp ten+def e e4 p leg q. fs4 pp def)) (setf seq2 '(e f4 p leg e. g4 def e bb4 mp> leg qs b4 def)) (setf seq3 '(e. eb4…

Is it possible to display a bar number in each bar in scores generated with the ps function? thank you very much best wishes

I do not understand the outcome, if I use augmentation inside the counterpoint function. See example, in my understanding: bar 3 should be empty and the clarinet should start again in bar 4!? Is it only possible to use augmentation in all voices at the same time, why does the time signature is different from span in bar 2? Did I get something wrong? Best wishes (setf seq1 '(s c4 mf e. cs4 e e4 q. fs4 tie q fs4)) (setf seq2 '(e f4 e. g4 s bb4 e b4)) (setf seq3 '( s d4 qs eb4 s gs4 e. a4)) (counterpoint (list seq1 seq2 seq3) '( #|1|# ((1 - 1) :span nil :methods (- - (i t5))) #|2|# ((1 2 1) :span 4/8 :methods ((la2 t10 i) - la2)) #|3…

Dear OPMO users, I have a problem with Auto-Saving files. Almost always I get this attached error or notification. Is it possible to disable auto-save option, since it is creating a bit mess, sometimes opens older file etc..

I have converted many of my scores made in Notion to music xml in order to display them in the Assistant..which is very nice indeed. I'm wondering if I can convert those xml scores to an Opusmodus score direct or do I have to re-import them as midi? I see I can go the other way..xml to Notion, but cannot find how to go this way or if it's possible. Thanks
