Happy New Year everyone. I have a question regarding the most flexible use of lists.
Here's the situation... I'm writing a piece for the viola d'amore, an unusual 7 stringed viol. A reasonable range for each string is 15 notes per string (not including the open one). My idea is that the instrumentalist will play each note once, randomly, during the duration of the piece. The visualisation of this will be in a GEM window and will simply be the string number and the note. This will be alongside some MSD visuals, so the GEMWIN, will, in effect be the score. So we have, for example, the lowest string as a list including the string number and the note: 1 7_A#, 2 7_B, 3 7_C, 4 7_C# ...etc. Now this gets further complicated when we reach '11 7_A', as we need to differentiate between the octave on the same string. This I am planning on doing by using a different colour in the GEMWIN so I will need to send this to a different output. So the GEM visual will be '7_B' with a different colour depending on the octave. The underscore isn't necessarily necessary but I think '7_B' looks better/is easier to read than '7B'. I have done something like this before but just with numbers, so with [urn] and [table] and having all the atoms in a textfile. This is a bit more involved and I'm not sure of the most flexible and/or elegant solution. All input gratefully received and acknowledged:) Cheers, Julian
