The convention for writing broken rhythms like A3/ A/ is A>A Is it possible to find a way of writing more friendly this sort of notation : (3A-AA ? I don't know if it's common in music but I've several medieval / trad. tunes which are written or played such. For abc2midi there is the notation %%MIDI ratio 2 1 but it's not standardized in other applications or in the abc standard. I've even a partition written with normal dotted notes, but it is indicated above the partition :
A3/ A/ = (3A-AA So I had to adapt it for abc : 1st version : X:39 T:La jalousie est cause R: N: O:France Z:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- http://anamnese.fr.st M:2/4 L:1/8 Q:1/4=125 K:Db K:Bbm %%MIDI ratio 2 1 F | B>B c>c | d2 c>c | B>B c>d | c3F | B>B c>c | d2 c>c | B>B c>d | c3c | f>e d>c | B2 B>B | e>d c>B | F3F | B>B c>d | A>A d2 | c>B B>=A| B3F | B>B c>d | A>A d2 | c>B B>=A| B3z || W:Derrière la fontenelle, près d'un ruisseau coulant (2x) W:Il y a trois demoiselles qui s'en vont en disant : W: W: "La jalousie est cause que l'on vit en tourments !"

(2x) what can we do for this ? Find a new notation like the A>A one ? For example (3A>A or better, allow (3A2A ? Or write it like dotted notes but give a command to make software understand this is an other type of rhythm ? (Generalise the %%MIDI ratio n m command, or find a new one, like "%%Broken Rhythm ration n m" because it may not only concern midi but display as well) ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français !
