you can use a minus sign to mark a rhythm as a rest. an initial - will cause the rhythm function to return a negative time value. your code will then look for negative values and act accordingly.
CM> (rhythm '-q.) -1.5 note that the minus sign operates on the whole symbol even if + and - appear inside it: CM> CM> (rhythm '-w+s) -4.25 you can pass a negative time values to WAIT and it will use the absolute value but otherwise CM doesnt treat negative value differnetly than positive ones. ---- Original message ---- >Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2006 16:33:24 +0100 >From: Fergal Dowling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: [CM] rhythmic symbols for rests >To: [email protected] > >Hi, >In "Notes from the Metalevel", (Chapter 10 p93) table 8 gives examples >of rhythmic symbols: > >quarter q >triplet quarter tq >dotted-eight e. >triplet dotted sixteenth ts. > >and so on. > >Are there corresponding rhythmic symbols for rests? > >Thanks, >Fergal Dowling. > >_______________________________________________ >Cmdist mailing list >[email protected] >http://ccrma-mail.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/cmdist _______________________________________________ Cmdist mailing list [email protected] http://ccrma-mail.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/cmdist
