Thanks for the ideas of Cornelius and Andre.
I am working on a little program to do the conversion from 2 quavers to
a triplet of quavers with a tie on the first two.
I will let you know, when I have made progress.


The text based engraving software, MUP (http://www.arkkra.com/) which 
has been open source for some time has support for MIDI 'swing'. The 
MIDI program logic is located in the c source file mkchords.c


Maybe some ideas could be picked out from there.

Re: [Tex-music] How to make straight quavers swing?

2013-03-18 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem 
What i remember of this is that i not have found a solution: i had to make a 
specific midi sheet, ie a grace note was produced by shortening the prevous 
note and then put a 1/32 note:


r8 Gxe g8+ becomes   r1 r3 e Gxe g8+

The quaver c8 d  should become c4Dx3 d

I tried the to combine this all in one pmx file, ie by trying something as 
IMS1 ... IM (record MIDI without producing sheet data) in combination with 
MS2 ... M (record the code without producing output) in order to hear the 
constructed grace and see the normal grace.
 IMS1 r1 r3 e Gxe g8+ IM (stop midi output)  r8 Gxe g8+ IMR2 (restart midi 
output) 

Of course this is not possible

I am not sure that I really understand what you are looking for; but
reading Don Simons' comment, it seems this may be similar to
the notation shorthand of consecutive quavers that are quite
common in the literature.

If so, the trick Andre Ryckeghem invented some time ago
(simply an inline TeX macro) might be of use. You'll find that
explained in my PMX tutorial - look at the
   subsection{Shorthand notation for consecutive quavers} .

This might be useful; and perhaps its not a big deal to rewrite
Andre Ryckehems macro suitable to your need.

If that's so, please explain in more detail what you want, and
perhaps we'll manage something.


Thanks

and regards,

Dieter

[Tex-music] How to make straight quavers swing?

2013-03-15 Thread Dieter 

Has anybody got an idea how to make PMX (or the generated midi file) swing,
i.e. translate 2 quavers into a triplet with a tie on the first notes.

Thanks and regards,
Dieter
