With this version than transfer everthing. Libraries developed for 4.3 that it's currently easier to continue working I have the latest version of SCOM but I have so many personal functions and But you have to ask David Gottlieb for it as it hasn't been released There is a Nightingale version that works on 10.6.
#USE BIDULE FOR ORCHRSTA MAC OS#
I use SCOM 4.3 and Nightingale OS on an old Power PC for most of myĬomposition partly because 4.3 on Mac OS lets me use the custom MIDIplayer I chose Nightingale because the bar line is aįree graphic symbol and that gives me a little latitude in organising (and Practical tool for composers (writing for human performance) than it is now.Īs it stands I have to save my zone output in ratio format and then enter itĪs time-signatures (via a playlist) into metro. If there was some way I could embed Midi time-signatureĭata in the SCOM scorefile it would I believe make SCOM a much more Score output has to be to enable me to transfer it accurately via midifile When I write a score in SCOM I am very aware of what the Have found a solution that works well for me I am always interested to lookĪt other methods.

#USE BIDULE FOR ORCHRSTA SOFTWARE#
Instead of buying new software I would preferably sponsor the development of a what-so-ever conversion tool. I took a look at the websites from Metro and Nightingale, but Nightingale is not even Mac OS 10.5 compatible and I am using 10.6.- so this is no option for me. Currently I pick pencil and paper and write down the output of SCOM. I'am still in an experimental/learning phase whith SCOM but beginn to like it a lot. I personally need the feedback of a written or printed score (in common music notation) in the process of writing music. But I did not saw any scores produced by that. There is a external for max/msp called MaxScore which exports directly to Lilypond (I think it is java-based.). There is a midi-to-lilypond conversion tool which is practically unuseable (you have to correct so much that it's easier for me to type it immediately). So if the LP output was poor it was surely a problem of conversion. Lilypond is hard to learn but then you have all freedom and get a wonderful score (see attached miniatures for piano). Notes file could also automatically open when the document is opened.Ĭurrently I write down the music on paper and then type it into Lilypond. Other ideas (any unique short string would be ok, the shorter and maybe "notes" is not the best word, since there are many Or if you use notes- at the beginning of the function nameĬustom menus are defined in Defs/Custom System Index Menus.lisp.
(def-system-index-menu "Custom Menus" " Notes" You can also add Notes folder into the System Index Menus this way Notes can be opened from the Projects menu. This way all notes keep in one place, and you can move them easily to (or you could save it as notes-activate-tonality) To add a note to activate-tonality make a new file, and save it into Hi, most new features are described on page:ītw, it is better to keep notes in a separate file, for example
