[fomus-devel] v0-2-7
by David Psenicka 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

The 0.2.7 release has quite a few changes, so there might be a few bugs left that I haven't caught. Some new things are: plugin interface--anyone can add modules and backends by dropping a .lisp file into the plugin directory (and putting a deffomusplugin declaration at the top of the file)--this will make it easier to experiment w/ different algorithms while not breaking the main program. Also, plugins load only on demand. Kilian's note-speller (:nokey2) is the first one (use it by making sure you can load the "iterate" common-lisp package with ASDF and supplying the setting ":auto-accs-mod :nokey2"). Get a plugin listing w/ LIST-FOMUS-PLUGINS (only the ones that compile successfully are listed). REGISTER-FOMUS-PLUGIN and LOAD-FOMUS-PLUGIN aren't normally necessary, but they're there for testing/debugging, etc.. Improved the command-line interface a bit--there was a bug mentioned earlier on this list which I'm not sure I fixed... but nonetheless several other bugs were fixed. More useful switches were added for controlling output (type "fomus" by itself after it has been installed to see them). It should also work with CLISP now (I tested this on Linux but not Windows). Also, fomus is a bit more informative when reporting errors in text files (gives the "entry" number and prints the line out) Added some initial support for "chunks," which allow the user to process separate sections of the score (either time-wise or part-wise) and "merge" them together. Parts are merged if they have the same part ID or added to the score if their IDs are unique. Right now overlapping measures that both contain notes can't be merged--measures are merged only if one contains notes and all others overlapping at that location contain rests. This definitely still needs some work done on it. Key signatures are almost there (I've been procrastinating on this feature)--eventually the note speller will take these into account (and caut. accidentals will be correct) Don't know why fomus runs 10x slower in OpenMCL (I timed it & compared it w/ SBCL--OpenMCL is amazingly slower for some reason)--I'll have to do some profiling Added some more text input examples (+ Rob Canning's--thanks) Thanks to everyone for your help -David

[fomus-devel] behavior of dynamics
by Rob Canning 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

hi, i'm just wondering would it be a good idea for dynamics to behave in a similar way to :pizz - ie not to be displayed on each sequential occurence? in the example below i don't think the piano marking should be diplayed on the 2nd 3rd and 4th events. just an idea... thanks for the other fixes :) rob (note 1 :off 0 :dur 3 :note 75 :marks (:startslur- (:textnote"de")(:textnote"6")(:P)(:pizz ))))); (note 1 :off 3 :dur 0.5 :note 81 :marks (:staccato (:textnote"dum")(:textnote"1")(:P) ))))); (note 1 :off 3.5 :dur 3 :note 68 :marks (:ignore (:textnote"dum")(:textnote"2")(:P)(:pizz ))))); (note 1 :off 6.5 :dur 1 :note 69 :marks (:ignore (:textnote"de")(:textnote"3")(:P)(:pizz ))))); (note 1 :off 7.5 :dur 0.5 :note 76 :marks (:marcato (:textnote"de")(:textnote"4")(:FF)(:pizz ))))); (note 1 :off 8 :dur 0.25 :note 76 :marks (:accent (:textnote"de")(:textnote"5")(:P)(:pizz ))))); ----------------------------------------------------------------- Find the home of your dreams with eircom net property Sign up for email alerts now http://www.eircom.net/propertyalerts

[fomus-devel] iterate
by Kilian Sprotte 15 Sep '06

15 Sep '06

Greetings, this is just to announce that fomus is now installable, independent of whether you have installed the additional lisp library 'iterate' or not. If you encounter any problems, please let me know on this list. http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/fomus-devel/2006-September/000077.html It also means that the second harmonic spelling algo as advertised above, should be functional (but not finished yet, anyway). Thanks, Kilian

hi! is there a "blank" message that i can write in a fomus file but that it will ignore for example :mark (:portato) :mark (:ignore) this is so i could have a way of clearing a placeholder in a fixed length message i am generating in pd with [sprintf] if i dont clear it it will remain in subsequent messages until a new value repalces it. i'm sure there is a more elegant way i could generate my message strings but it would be handy to know if there is a ":ignore" message i could send thanks rob ----------------------------------------------------------------- Find the home of your dreams with eircom net property Sign up for email alerts now http://www.eircom.net/propertyalerts

[fomus-devel] Installation problem: fomus commandline application

Dear all, I am new to this list and did not find my problem discussed already. Apologies if if this is a FAQ. I tried to install the fomus commandline application, without success so far. It appears the compilation finishes successfully, then a Fomus greating message appears which ends up in the debugger. I get an error message which reads something like the following (copied by hand, hopefully without typos..) debugger invoked on an END-OF-FILE in thread 8843: end of file on #<SB-IMPL::STRING-INPUT-STREAM {9734081}> <snipped> (SB-IMPL::STRING-INCH 3 #<SB-IMPL:: STRING-INPUT-STREAM {some number}> T NIL)[:EXTERNAL] I tried Fomus 0.2.6 with SBCL 0.8.16 and a CMUCL snapshot from 2004 -- all on Linux (Fedora Core 3).

[fomus-devel] [OT] Strasheela 0.8.1 has been released
by Torsten Anders 07 Sep '06

[Apologies for multiple postings] Strasheela is a highly expressive constraint-based music composition system. Users declaratively state a music theory and the computer generates music which complies with this theory. A theory is formulated as a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) by a set of rules (constraints) applied to a music representation in which some aspects are expressed by variables (unknowns). Music constraint programming is style-independent and is well-suited for highly complex theories (e.g. a fully-fledged theory of harmony). Results can be output into various formats including MIDI, Lilypond, and Csound. The installation instructions and other documentation have been revised. Support for more output formats has been added, namely ENP and Fomus, thus allowing export to Finale and Sibelius. Other extensions have been added, and bugfixes have been made.

Re: [fomus-devel] Installation problem: fomus commandline application

Dear Torsten, you tried it with sbcl and cmucl and get basically the same error? For the sbcl case - maybe it would be good just to try with 0.9.16 ? Just to be sure: You are invoking it with $ ./install.sh --sbcl (no other options?) A friend of mine had a problem _using_ the fomus cmdline app... The error message was similar (if I remember correctly). It showed up, that the encoding of his text input file was unicode.... Changing it to Latin-1 made it work! There is even a 0.9.16 binary release available on http://sbcl.sourceforge.net/platform-table.html, so again, its probably best to try that. Have you successfully compiled and used fomus from the Lisp REPL? Hope that helps somehow, if not, I am sure that David will now, but he might need a longer backtrace then... ;-) Cheers, Kilian

[fomus-devel] new fomus frontend

Hi, I would like to announce that the strasheela composition system has a new fomus backend (in svn). You'll find further informations on its home page http:// strasheela.sourceforge.net/. Particularly interesting might by: http://strasheela.sourceforge.net/strasheela/doc/StrasheelaExamples.html There is already one more example in svn that deals with a combination of l-systems and constraints. Cheers, Kilian
