Re: [Audacity-nyquist] seq2test.ny sequencer plug-in

[David R. S. <dav...@sh...>]

Hi,

Just because I disagreed with some of Paul's points didn't mean I
had to be sarcastic in my response to him. I apologize to Paul and
to the Audacity-Nyquist community in general.

I have been thinking about Paul's comments about using the
Pythagorean scale he spoke of. It is possible to enter floating-
point values for semitone values into seq2test.ny. At the moment
though, it is not possible to enter LISP math expressions to create
semitone values. This will be my next step in evolving seq2test.ny.

If I understand these ratios correctly, using his example of one of
the tone ratios 9/8, to convert this to proper semitone value for
the sequencer, the LISP code would be

(- (* 12.0 (/ 9 8)) 12)

which equals a semitone value of 1.5. This can be done with the
other ratios.

I will be editing seq2test.ny to allow users to enter LISP math
expressions to allow entering such calculations, rather than
calculating elsewhere and entering the values by hand.

Thanks

David
