Not actually, it was removed for technical reasons. Best Stéphane

Hi, here's a short experiment/study composed today for mezzo-soprano, flute, clarinet and bassoon. Score is a bit commented for clarity and study purpose. All the best to all OM users. SB. MelodyOnTexture.mp3 MelodyOnTexture1GM.opmo

Hi, one more output just for fun ! S. Trapped-Septuor-888684.mp3

Hi, here's one of raw outputs from an Opusmodus score I'm working on actually. That's a work in progress but will be fully documented later in the future... Stéphane TrappedSeptuor413188.mp3 Trapped-Septuor-413188.pdf

you may try to not open a workspace but directly an .opmo document and evaluate. actually, I don't have M1 or Monterey so I don't know if it could work but if yes, it could be a temporary solution. Stéphane

Very good !! Bravo ! S.

Fab !

Excellent, congrats !

Small update to the final Conductor score and audio file. Best ! Stéphane

Hi, here's a short score composed for string quartet. All the best to all OM users ! Stéphane stephaneboussuge · Méditation MeditationPourRené.opmo 01 - Conducteur - Méditation.pdf

Another good complet list can be found in function list under Tonality and Modes. SB.

If you are familiar with Emacs editor you can also use it with Opusmodus, it works very well. SB.

Here's a way to get Opusmodus on iPad and it's very fun and useful !! SB.

Hi Julio, it comes from the use of filter-tie function in the methods. Best Stéphane

Magnifique travail Didier, fantastique, merci ! S.

do a right click on the file and select open, you will get almost the same message but with the possibility to open it anyway. Best SB.

A short example showing the basics of counterpoint function.

I agree, an horizontal replacement possibility would be very useful. Best ! SB.

The notes in patterns are not really rounded, they are the harmonic path itself, they are played sequentially in order from the notes given to :harmony parameter , so if you want to use closest path or any voices leading technique, you need to prepare your :harmony sequence of pitches right to be what you need. This :harmony could be also useful for serial or pitch-class composers who want to play the pitches from some row/Pcs in order, kind of horizontal distribution of pitches for motivic design. For vertical distribution across voices, I would probably prefer to use the distribute-seq function or a similar approach. It is also possible to use tonality-map function after the counterpoint but it would be nice to be able to use it also directly into counterpoint dictum like the :harmony keyword, something like :tonality keyword. Janusz ? Best ! Stf

Please, note that harmony in counterpoint is the application of the harmonic-path function, who allow you to keep voice leading in chords as I showed several times in my lessons, and it is very different than tonality-map function. Btw, if you use scale in :harmony parameter you will get scalar motive in counterpoint but if you use chords with well defined voices leading from chord to chord, the result could become much interesting in terms of harmonic control and voice leading control SB.
