Subject: Auto-ottava Scheme script problems
Hello all,
...
So I've been using that function daily for years and it works
wonderfully. Just recently, however, I started working on adding
chords to my music generating program (before you could have many
different voices but just not chords) and that's when I noticed a
problem.
The following works as intended:
<c e g> or
<c e g>4
but these produce errors:
<c e g>\f or
<c e g>4\f
...
The problem seems to be when there are dynamics involved with chords.
Note, this does *not* happen with single notes and dynamics, only with
chords and dynamics.
...
Thanks,
Dave Bellows
Sorry I can't help directly. But it does make me wonder whether it would work if you structured your score a bit differently?
For example,
<>\f <c e g>
<>\f <c e g>4
Or like this:
<<
{
% We'll need to give this first chord a definite duration for this approach to have a chance
<c e g>2.
<c e g>4
}
{
s2.\f
s4\f
}
