Heavy pressure by Monsieur Boussuge ! Indeed, really important and time saver for the composer. This would let us import stuff, maintaining the attributtes (dynamics, markings) of existing scores. All the best ! Julio

Looking forward to this. Now I´m trying to get some Ravel Piano scores onto OMN to make some tweaks.

Thanks, Stephane !

Dear All, I´m doing some melodic permutations and I have a question about replace-map: Here are four elements permutations, generated by: (permute '(1 2 3 4)) (setf permut4 '((1 2 3 4) (1 2 4 3) (1 3 2 4) (1 3 4 2) (1 4 2 3) (1 4 3 2) (2 1 3 4) (2 1 4 3) (2 3 1 4) (2 3 4 1) (2 4 1 3) (2 4 3 1) (3 1 2 4) (3 1 4 2) (3 2 1 4) (3 2 4 1) (3 4 1 2) (3 4 2 1) (4 1 2 3) (4 1 3 2) (4 2 1 3) (4 2 3 1) (4 3 1 2) (4 3 2 1))) Here are the pitch material to be permutated: (setf permutcontent '((1 cs4) (2 d4) (3 e4) (4 g4))) I used the REPLACE MAP FUNCTION, like this: (replace-map permutcontent permut4) THE RESULT: ((c4 d4 e4 g4) (c4 d4 g4 e4) (c4 e4 d4 g4) (c4 e4 g4 d4) (c4 g4 d4 e4) (c4 g4 e4 d4) (d4 c4 e4 g4) (d4 c4 g4 e4) (d4 e4 c4 g4) (d4 e4 g4 c4) (d4 g4 c4 e4) (d4 g4 e4 c4) (e4 c4 d4 g4) (e4 c4 g4 d4) (e4 d4 c4 g4) (e4 d4 g4 c4) (e4 g4 c4 d4) (e4 g4 d4 c4) (g4 c4 d4 e4) (g4 c4 e4 d4) (g4 d4 c4 e4) (g4 d4 e4 c4) (g4 e4 c4 d4) (g4 e4 d4 c4)) THE QUESTION: What if I want to replace one item (like a pitch) for a list of melodic pitches ? How to proceed ? For example: Instead of substitute a C4 for the number 1, I want to substitute a list of notes, like (cs4 ds4) (setf permutcontent '((1 cs4 ds4) (2 d4) (3 e4) (4 g4))) When I set this, a get only the cs4 permeated... Best, Julio I got it ! All the material must have the same number of elements, like (setf permutcontent '((1 (c4 cs4)) (2 (b4 ds4)) (3 (c5 f4)) (4 (cs5 ds4)))) Resulting in: ((c4 cs4) (b4 ds4) (c5 f4) (cs5 ds4)) ((c4 cs4) (b4 ds4) (cs5 ds4) (c5 f4)) ((c4 cs4) (c5 f4) (b4 ds4) (cs5 ds4)) ((c4 cs4) (c5 f4) (cs5 ds4) (b4 ds4)) ((c4 cs4) (cs5 ds4) (b4 ds4) (c5 f4)) ((c4 cs4) (cs5 ds4) (c5 f4) (b4 ds4)) ((b4 ds4) (c4 cs4) (c5 f4) (cs5 ds4)) ((b4 ds4) (c4 cs4) (cs5 ds4) (c5 f4)) ((b4 ds4) (c5 f4) (c4 cs4) (cs5 ds4)) ((b4 ds4) (c5 f4) (cs5 ds4) (c4 cs4)) ((b4 ds4) (cs5 ds4) (c4 cs4) (c5 f4)) ((b4 ds4) (cs5 ds4) (c5 f4) (c4 cs4)) ((c5 f4) (c4 cs4) (b4 ds4) (cs5 ds4)) ((c5 f4) (c4 cs4) (cs5 ds4) (b4 ds4)) ((c5 f4) (b4 ds4) (c4 cs4) (cs5 ds4)) ((c5 f4) (b4 ds4) (cs5 ds4) (c4 cs4)) ((c5 f4) (cs5 ds4) (c4 cs4) (b4 ds4)) ((c5 f4) (cs5 ds4) (b4 ds4) (c4 cs4)) ((cs5 ds4) (c4 cs4) (b4 ds4) (c5 f4)) ((cs5 ds4) (c4 cs4) (c5 f4) (b4 ds4)) ((cs5 ds4) (b4 ds4) (c4 cs4) (c5 f4)) ((cs5 ds4) (b4 ds4) (c5 f4) (c4 cs4)) ((cs5 ds4) (c5 f4) (c4 cs4) (b4 ds4)) ((cs5 ds4) (c5 f4) (b4 ds4) (c4 cs4))) But would be nice to MIX different number of elements...

I Love pieces with Scores !! Thank you and congrats for the music, Stephane ! Sounds great ! Best, Julio

Very Cool ! opmo code/score avaiable ? Best, Julio

Cool ! I'm curious !! Best, Julio

When it will be released ? Best, Julio

wow !!! Thanks !! Best, Julio

Thank you, Janusz ! I'm using this with the new closest-path function. Best, Julio

Dear Friends, When evaluating this (cmd+1) '(h (g3f4b4db5) (c4 maj7)) as snippet, I get this: Why is that c4 alone there in the beginning of snippet ? Best, Julio

Dear André, It's all solved with :start option ! You can decide a "model" voicing for the voice-leading ! Very cool ! Best, Julio Thank you, Janusz !

Dear Friends, Very basic question: I use some old VSL sample .gig files with gplayer. I really like this libraries and the way it sounds. The combination patches alternate sounds via keyswitches in the lower range of keyboard (or the upper range in some instruments). Something like: C normal sound C# pizz D marcato etc Can I use this keyswitches in the OMN lingo, without having to send the midi note itself to activate the keyswitch, something like: (marcato e c4 d4 s legato fs4 g4 cs5 eb5 ) Opusmodus will send the keyswitches as a hidden midi note in the expression ? All the best, Julio

Dear Janusz, When I evaluate this expression: (closest-path '(b3eb5g3 cs6e7gs3 b4f5g6 f7e5c2 d4f7e4 gs7e2a8)) I get this: I was expecting this: Maybe a good idea would be something like a octave compress option. Best, Julio

Done !!! All the best, Janusz ! Julio

Yes, it also occurred to me to change the name. If this is really an sucessful algorythm for the closest-path, I would suggest to change the old function to another name. Thank you, Janusz ! Best, Julio

Dear Janusz, In my version of Opusmodus, I get this: But maybe it's important to have all compressed within one octave, like this: (g3b3eb4 gs3cs4e4 b3g3f4 c4f3e4 d4e4f3 e4gs3a3) What do you think? Best, Julio

I think voice-leading is one of the hardest things !!

Dear Friends, Avner, I noticed exactly the same behaviour. I feel a contradiction in having two results for something called "the closest path", because "the closest path", in my interpretation, means only one solution: the one in which the sum of the semitones of all voice-leading moves are the less. It's logically impossible to have "the closest path" with two solutions. You cannot have the cake and eat it too... If the function alternate between two solutions, maybe could be the case that two solutions would sum the same amount of semitonal moves, but the example above do not seems to be that case. After I realized it, I tried to find a way to assure a more accurate expression to represent that one "closest" solution. Janusz, what do you think ? All the best !! I love Opusmodus !! Thank you ! Best, Julio

Thanks a lot !! Best !

When I try to open an XML file generated in Opusmodus snippet in Musescore 3, I get a message (File Corrupted). I have to open it in Finale and then export as XML. After that I can open it in Musescore. I do´t know why... But I decided to report it to you. Best, Julio

Dear All, There is a way of exporting the graphic Circle rhythm plots, like an easy shortcut, as we have with the snippets (to XML or MIDI) ? Thanks ! Best, Julio

Thanks, Janusz! I'm going to check it out ! Best

Dear Friends, Here 's a way to produce chords from 12 tone rows (Schoenberg opus 25 row): (setf op25arnie '(e4 f4 g4 cs4 fs4 ds4 gs4 d4 b4 c4 a4 as4)) (respell (gen-chord2 20 '(3 3 3 1) op25arnie)) Hope it helps a little. Best, Julio Also check this ! And the Nigel Morgan Parametric Composition book, of course ! More specific, to keep track of the row: (setf op29webernLib (expand-libraries '(library vienna webern r19))) (setf rowint (pitch-to-integer op29webernLib)) (setf pitches (gen-repeat 10 op29webernLib)) (setf lengths (span pitches (gen-repeat 10 '(s s s s -s s e -s s s -s e e -q q)))) (setf text (span pitches rowint)) (def-score Stage-1 (:key-signature 'chromatic :time-signature '(4 4) :tempo 80 :layout (treble-layout 'piano-rh)) (piano-rh :length lengths :pitch pitches :text text ;:velocity dynamics :channel 1 :sound 'gm :program 'acoustic-grand-piano) ) Best, Julio

Thanks, Janusz ! Best, Julio
