[fomus-devel] :harpsichord
by rob canning 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

hi i am writing a piece for a harpsichord with two manuals part 1 :name "harpsichord" :abbrev "hpschd." :instr :harpsichord; what is the best way to do this - atm i am sending :voice 1 and :voice 2 to send the two different parts to the two different manuals both manuals start in bass clef and both climb in to treble clef - the problem is the bottom stave stays in bass clef and the music jumps into the manual 1 part. i would like to be able to switch between single line cross-stave writing and two part writing. so to summarise... i want to lock voice two to stave two of :harpsichord and have it so it changes into treble clef where necessary. anyone know how to do this? thanks rob once again... many thanks for fomus i am finding it incredibly useful :) very soon i hope to become very prolific ;)

[fomus-devel] ratio tuplets in lilypond v. > 2.8
by andersvi＠extern.uio.no 11 Apr '07

Seems lilypond changed its way of specifying fractional tuplet-numbers after v.2.8. Heres a diff to fomus' lilypond-backend to suite: cd /div/notam02/site/localdomain/cm-sys/fomus/ diff -c /div/notam02/site/localdomain/cm-sys/fomus/backend_ly.lisp\~ /div/notam02/site/localdomain/cm-sys/fomus/backend_ly.lisp *** /div/notam02/site/localdomain/cm-sys/fomus/backend_ly.lisp~ 2007-03-26 14:40:05.000000000 +0200 --- /div/notam02/site/localdomain/cm-sys/fomus/backend_ly.lisp 2007-04-10 12:44:48.000000000 +0200 *************** *** 289,295 **** (loop for s from 1 to ns do (format f " \\change Staff = ~A \\override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'()~%" (code-char (+ 64 s)))) (format f " \\override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'()~%"))) !

[fomus-devel] n-tuplets
by andersvi＠extern.uio.no 09 Apr '07

09 Apr '07

Hello, im just starting to look at this very interesting tool, and trying some simple cases to get going. First issue is how to control tuplets. Fex, how can i make fomus "simplify" a 5/8 measure with 6 sixtuplets as one group of six notes with a "6:5" (or "6") subdivision mark, instead of a sequence of tied trioles? (fomus :output '(:data (:lilypond :view t)) :global (list (make-timesig :off 0 :time '(5 8) :beat 1/8)) :parts (list (make-part :instr :flute :events (loop repeat 6 for off from 0 by 5/6 collect (make-note :off off :note 60 :dur 5/6))))) Ive tried fiddling with various settings, :default-tuplet-divs and :default-tuplets, :auto-quantize and such without luck.

[fomus-devel] :textnote relative to measure position in finale via xml
by rob canning 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

hi again this may be the fault of music xml rather than fomus but FYI: :textnote marks when imported into finale via xml are relative to measure position rather than attached to the note (as an articulation would be) - so once you start doing things like inserting bars, the text markings get out of alignment with the note heads cheers rob
