ive wanted something like this too! ie a "chunk" or "gesture" I can pass to fomus with much of the stuff already figured out. chunks more closely reflects how i actually compute stuff, not note-to-note but, well... in chunks!
(chunk :off 12 :notes (fm-spectrum ...) :dur 2 :part 1)
so the actual rhythms here would be dur / length(spectrum) if the :notes allowed lists of lists then sublists are "chords" etc. it would be great if fomus could save them as chunks too...
--rick
I find more often than not i use measures as a container which spans a certain place in time, not necessarily with any 'metric significance as such, especially when multiple rhythmic voices/layers are running alongside each other. All choices fomus makes towards musical logic are very useful as long as they can be overridden or made explicit at the local level (= note).
Which classes to start to look at to make a 'measure class?
