-
A drum pattern object to ease programming rhythms, inspired by the pattern system used in
example/drum_machine.f90. Could be also used by ForSynth? (***) -
A note sequencer repeating a pattern. Could be also used by ForSynth? (***)
-
A sequence object, accepting a string with notes, with methods to obtain one by one their parameters (physical or MIDI). A first attempt can be seen in
example/la_folia.f90. Could be also used by ForSynth? (***) -
