Most (but not all) sound effects will be MIDI controller changes.
Not always a function is required. Some controllers don't even support more values than true or false.
So here's a new idea:
Function (lowlevel syntax):
0 volume.sin(ampl=50;periods=5.3) *1
Function (compact syntax):
0: (volume.sin(ampl=50;periods=5.3;length=1))
Simple setting (lowlevel syntax):
0 volume.set=75 -
Simple setting (compact syntax):
0: (volume.set=75)
Not sure yet, if lowlevel syntax should be supported for this at all.

Again a new idea - Pipelining:
Lowlevel:
0 bend.wait().line(64,127).wait().length(/2).line(127,64) /4
0 c /1+/1
Compact:
0: bend.wait().line(64,127).wait().length(/2).line(127,64) c:1+1
Meaning:
- A C is played for two whole notes.
- wait(): It stays unchanged for a quarter note
- quarter because /4 in lowlevel and default in compact
- line(64,127): The next quarter it is pitch-bended from the middle to maximum
- pitch-bend because the first bend determines the effect
- wait(): It stays at maximum for a quarter note
- length(/2): sets the length to a half note for following pipeline functions
- line(127,64): during the next half note the bend is reduced from maximum to the middle again
- the rest of the note is untouched
I think this is better then the option-like syntax (any.thing(value))
. There are too many braces.
Also another idea for setters and binary controllers: These can also be implemented as functions, just like line() or sin():
0: hold.on() c d e hold.off() c d e volume.set(127) c d e volume.set(30%) c d e
A possibility to address controllers or RPNs by number:
ctrl=7.sin(20,60,4.3)
rpn=0.set(6)
This addresses controller 7 (volume) or RPN 0 (pitch bend sensitivity)
from midica.
Maybe pipelining is the wrong wording. Such a call chain should be renamed to effect flow (or maybe 'chaining'?). This also applies for the class, variables and placeholders.
from midica.
Not to be forgotten:
- call closeFlowIfPossible() from the parser
- poly_at / mono_at (special treatment)
- pitch bend (special treatment with a parameter for half-tone-steps - connected to pitch bend range)
- nestable blocks and functions - make sure it works there as well
- patterns !!! - very important. Special treatment for aftertouch notes (support indices)
