Automatic opening last MIDI file files in Musescore (or Sibelius, etc)

[JulioHerrlein]

Dear Friends,

Is there some way to automatically opening a MIDI FILE (related to the last snippet/score generated)  from Opusmodus to other application (Musescore, Sibelius) ?

 

Something similar to this solution ?

last-score-to-musescore

 

solution, but for last midi files ?

 

Like this post ? But for midi file?

 

Many thanks in advance !

Much needed now.

 

Best,

*last-score* is snippet therefore you should be able to open the it in any publishing app.

Thanks, Janusz !

 

But I need the Midi File to get the VSL articulations from it.

I take the notated part from the XML, using

(last-score-to-musescore)

wich makes musescore open "automagically" the XML

I´d like to have the same thing for Export/Last Score to Midi...

without having to save midi file in disk first, then opening to Musescore.

Just the command and boom ! Like I have with the XML.

Then I will cut just the articulation keyswitches part and paste alongside the XML part.

 

Best !

I will make a function for it.

(midi-to-editor)

Many thanks, Janusz

 

If possible, add the idea of filtering tracks, for

 picking specific tracks on rendering the files, like

a keyword

:tracks

 

 

(midi-to-editor :tracks '(0 2 3 5))

For rendering/saving  just some tracks

 

It would be AWESOME !!

This you will need to do before.

 

(midi-to-editor) ;is using the default editor
(midi-to-editor "filename") ;specific midifile (not *last-score*)
(midi-to-editor :application Musescore) ;*last-score* midi will open in Musescore

the default will be:
 

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "Sibelius")

 

which you can changed to your editor application.

The same I will do to the musicxml:
(musicxml-to-editor)

[JulioHerrlein]

Thank you, Janusz

Yes, I already have some user defined things, like this:

 

(defparameter *snippet-clef-default* :treble-down8)

(defun last-score-to-musescore ()
  (compile-score *last-score* :output :musicxml :file "temp-last-score")
  (musicxml-to-editor "temp-last-score" :application "/Applications/MuseScore3.app"))

 

Thanks !!

I will try this to see if works !

 

(defun last-midi-to-musescore ()
  (compile-score *last-score* :output :midi :file "temp-last-midi")
  (midi-to-editor "temp-last-midi" :application "/Applications/MuseScore3.app"))

 

[opmo]

This will work.

[JulioHerrlein]

Now,  I just need the midi-to-editor function to make it work.

 

Thank you !

 

 

 

[JulioHerrlein]

I tried using the musicxml-to-editor

 

(defun last-midi-to-musescore ()
  (compile-score *last-score* :output :midi :file "temp-last-midi")
  (musicxml-to-editor "temp-last-midi" :application "/Applications/MuseScore3.app"))

Like above, but the musicxml gives an error with midi files...

 

How about to create a generic-file-to-editor choice, to send any type of file to other auxiliary apps ?

 

Best !

In the next update:

MUSICXML-TO-EDITOR
 

The MUSICXML-TO-EDITOR function opens a MusicXML file or the last compiled score (DEF-SCORE, PS or snippet) in any notation editor like Sibelius, Dorico, MuseScore etc...

 

In Opusmodus the default editor is set to Sibelius:

 

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "Sibelius.app")

 

To change the default editor you need to replace the  "Sibelius.app" string with the name of your own editor and paste the expression into the ‘User Source.lisp’ file which you will find in the ~/Opusmodus/Extensions directory.

 

For example:

 

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "Dorico 3.5.app")

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "MuseScore 3.app")

 

Examples:

 

To open the last compiled score (DEF-SCORE, PS or snippet) in the notation editor:

 

(musicxml-to-editor)

 

To open the 2nd instrument from the last compiled score (DEF-SCORE, PS or snippet) in the notation editor:

 

(musicxml-to-editor :instrument 2)

 

To open a MusicXML file in the notation editor:

 

(musicxml-to-editor "file-name")

 

To open the file in Finale:

 

(midi-to-editor "file-name" :application "Finale")

 

Should the application not open you can use the identifier keyword with the bundle-identifier.

For example the Sibelius 7.5 version identifier is "com.avid.Sibelius75"

 

(musicxml-to-editor "file-name" :identifier "com.avid.Sibelius75")
 

MIDI-TO-EDITOR
 

The MIDI-TO-EDITOR function opens a MIDI file or the last compiled score (DEF-SCORE, PS or snippet) in any notation editor like Sibelius, Dorico, MuseScore etc...

 

In Opusmodus the default editor is set to Sibelius:

 

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "Sibelius.app")

 

To change the default editor you need to replace the  "Sibelius.app" string with the name of your own editor and paste the expression into the ‘User Source.lisp’ file which you will find in the ~/Opusmodus/Extensions directory.

 

For example:

 

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "Dorico 3.5.app")

(defparameter *default-notation-editor* "MuseScore 3.app")

 

Examples:

 

To open the last compiled score (DEF-SCORE, PS or snippet) in the notation editor:

 

(midi-to-editor)

 

To open the 2nd instrument from the last compiled score (DEF-SCORE, PS or snippet) in the notation editor:

 

(midi-to-editor :instrument 2)

 

To open MIDI file in the notation editor:

 

(midi-to-editor "file-name")

 

To open the file in Finale:

 

(midi-to-editor "file-name" :application "Finale")

 

Should the application not open you can use the identifier keyword with the bundle-identifier.

For example the Sibelius 7.5 version identifier is "com.avid.Sibelius75"

 

(midi-to-editor "file-name" :identifier "com.avid.Sibelius75")
