how may i assign for example (12 1)  to all bars of the composition instead of only bar one ? Or from bar 1 to bar x 

 

(counterpoint patterns
              '(((8 2 3 5) :harmony major)
                ((4 2 2 6) :harmony major)
                ((1 8 7 *) :harmony major)
                ((1 2 * 8) :harmony major)
                ((1 2 * 8) :harmony major)
                ((1 1 * 1) :harmony major))
              :global-methods '((fl) (cl) (hn) (vc))
              :global-polyphony '((1 p) (2 o) (10 o) (11 o) (12 1)  (24 o) (36 o )(0 o))
              :iterate t :index 'v1-)

 

Thank you

 

Patrick

global-polyphony works on the result of the methods etc...

In your example it will work on all of the 6 bars.

Thank you

How may i restrict it to some measures

 

Thanks

 

Patrick

you can use :polyphony directly inside the counterpoint dictum, from bar to bar.

 Stephane ,

 

how should i define in which bar or set of bars i want an event to occur

 

Thank you

 

Patrick

Someting like that:

 

(counterpoint
 patterns
 '(((1 2 3 4) :methods (- i r -) 
    :tonality ((phrygian :root d4 :map 'octave)) :tempo 56 :polyphony '((0 o) (7 p)))
    
   ((3 1 3 -) :methods (- a t4 -) 
    :tonality ((lydian :root f4 :map 'octave)) :polyphony '((2 10) (1 11)))
 ))

 

Merci Stephane
