o_e Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Hi,  (setf test '((q a4 mf e a4 p e gs4 f e4 mp g4 p) (q a4 e e gs4 e4 d4))) (setf one '(1 3)) (dictum '(:remove :event :bar 1 :event one) test) This gives an error, is there a way to use variables for keywords?  Thanks and Happy Easter everybody  Edit: Just checked another function (randomly choosen). Here a variable for a keyword works fine. My guess is that it has to do with the quotation mark inside the dictum, is there a way around this?  (setf test-2 '((q a4 mf e a4 p e gs4 f e4 mp g4 p) (q a4 e e gs4 e4 d4) (e e4 g4 e4 g4 q a4))) (setf sec '(0 2)) (pitch-transpose '(7 -5 ) test-2 :section sec) ==>((q e5 e p eb5 f b4 mp d5 p) (q a4 p e e gs4 e4 d4) (e b3 p d4 b3 d4 q e4))  JulioHerrlein 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

o_e Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share Posted April 18, 2022 Its an accent grave and a comma, right?

Anyway thanks a lot Stéphane!!  best  ole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opmo Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 The DICTUM function is design to be the last function you are using in your composition - manual and rule base edit. Therefore there is no need for variables here.  The dictum itself can be a list of variables: (setf 3-dm1 '( (:range (7q e.) :apply (dechord x)) (:range (7q s) :apply marc) (:range (h. 1) :apply (pfp2-a pfp)) (:range (ws 2) :apply (pfp3-a pfp)) (:any q :apply ponte) (:any e :apply ric) (:apply marc :bar (1 157)) ;(:apply spicc :bar (4)) (:apply mart :bar (178 179 180 181)) (:butlast leg :bar (158)) (:apply tasto :bar (53 59 61 156 166 167)) (:sub (-q) :bar (10 13 21 33 34 35 36)) ) 3-dm2 '((:range (7q e.) :apply (dechord x)) (:range (7q s) :apply marc) (:range (h. 1) :apply (pfp2-a pfp)) (:range (ws 2) :apply (pfp3-a pfp)) (:any q :apply ponte) (:any e :apply ric) (:apply marc :bar (1)) ;(:apply spicc :bar (4)) (:apply mart :bar (177)) (:apply leg :bar (157)) (:butlast leg :bar (158 170 182)) (:apply tasto :bar (21 59 60 156 166 167)) (:sub (-q) :bar (19 39 42 74)) ) 3-dm3 '( (:range (7q e.) :apply (dechord x)) (:range (7q s) :apply marc) (:range (h. 1) :apply (pfp2-a pfp)) (:range (ws 2) :apply (pfp3-a pfp)) (:any q :apply ponte) (:any e :apply ric) (:apply marc :bar (1 3 5 6 7)) (:apply ric :bar (4)) (:apply spicc :bar (168)) (:apply leg :bar (157)) (:butlast leg :bar (158 182)) (:apply tasto :bar (21 53 59 60 155 156 166 167)) (:sub (-q) :bar (39 42 47 50 51 61 68 71)) ) 3-dm4 '( (:range (7q e.) :apply (dechord x)) (:range (7q s) :apply marc) (:range (h. 1) :apply (pfp2-a pfp)) (:range (ws 2) :apply (pfp3-a pfp)) (:any q :apply ponte) (:any e :apply ric) (:apply marc :bar (1)) ;(:apply ric :bar (4)) (:apply leg :bar (157)) (:butlast leg :bar (158 170 182)) (:apply tasto :bar (53 59 61 155 156 166 167)) (:sub (-q) :bar (11 12 16 18)) ) ) (setf 3-v1 (dictum 3-dm1 3-v1) 3-v2 (dictum 3-dm2 3-v2) 3-v3 (dictum 3-dm3 3-v3) 3-v4 (dictum 3-dm4 3-v4) )  JulioHerrlein 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o_e Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share Posted April 18, 2022 Ok, so I have a (so far ready)OM-score and I want to mute (= change into a rest) every other note (regardless of changing meters). How would I do that? Â Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opmo Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 You will not use a DICTUM function for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
