NM 2.0 + Source Code
=======================
Hi, computer music folks:
Nimble Music ( NM ) 2.0 is now ready, the new version has
three levels : Vois, High, Low.
Vois --- For the score of human voice.
High --- For Instrument.
Low --- For Instrument.
Each level may have up to four notes in a chord.
Other then above you can also arrange six tempos go with the
melody, for instance I can arrange the high head (h.h) play
tempo #1 and arrange r.c. play tempo #3 or so. That is to say
up to : 3(level) * 4(notes in each level) + 6(tempo) = 18
voices running at the same time, and up to :
3(level) + 6(tempo) = 9 timbres can be used in one melody.
In addition you can also input words.
Since some folks want to share my headaches and get into the
details, I now release the source code of NM 2.0, anyone who
wants to improve it is welcome to demonstrate your talent and
ability. If you think you are able to inport NM to Next or PC
or whatever, you are also welcome.
My main object is to get the music club running, the more
people join the club the more benefit every member will get,
and less energy will be wasted. So you are encouraged to post
this information to any where you think is appropriate, again
no fee is needed to join the NM music club, see details at the
end of the README file in your NM 2.0 package.
For those who have a Next machine, you might wnat go into Dir_Text
and play those *.text.score files. Up to now tts only
interprets one instrument---Pluck.
Some users have different machines from mine, but other users may
have already figured out how to work it out on different machines,
so if you have problem about installing NM on your machine, you
can post your questions to the newsgroup for some advice, the
machines I am using are SPARCstation IPC and SPARCstation 1++.
So folks, I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Now I would say : " Gentlemen --- Start --- Your --- Engine !! "
