Subject: Version 1.1a of LIME (notation software) now available
Followup-To: lime@unicorn.cerl.uiuc.edu
Organization: University of Illinois School of Music
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 1992 14:03:50 GMT


Hi,

A demonstration version of Lime 1.1a is available for Macintosh 
SE and II series computers.  A binhex'ed stuffit file containing 
the executable and manual can be copied via anonymous FTP from 
/pub/lime on novamail.cerl.uiuc.edu (internet number: 
128.174.180.9). Read the "README" file in /pub/lime for further 
instructions.

The demonstration version is fully functional, but is limited to 
three pages.

Here are the most important differences between 0.7 and 1.1:

	-Several pieces can be edited at  one time.

	-Several pages  from the same piece can be edited at one 
	 time.  The pages can be from the same or different notation contexts.

	-You can copy and paste between several pieces you are 
	 editing at one time.
	
	-You can enlarge or reduce (zoom) the view.  (See Layout.)

	-It supports Sonata and Interlude fonts.  (See Options.  
	 You must purchase these fonts separate from Lime.  )

	-System breaks can be set at fixed (always the same) or 
	 variable (calculated by the program) locations.

	-Unusual accidentals (user defined, also some quarter 
	 tone symbols that can be adjusted in cents on synthesizers 
	 that play microtones) are available under the note menu.

	-Dashed ties and slurs

	-"X moves with note" and "Y moves with note" have been 
	 changed to "Horizontal lock" and "Vertical lock."  NB: 
	 Having the boxes checked now has the opposite effect.  
	 Horizontal Lock checked means the annotation does not 
	 move left or right with the note, but is "locked" in 
	 position on the page.  Likewise, having the Vertical 
	 Lock checked means the annotation will not move up and 
	 down with the note, but is locked on the page.  

	-The Parameters dialogue has been improved, making 
	 it easier to find the parameters.



If you have problems or questions, please write Email to the Lime 
Consultant.  If you decide you would like to buy Lime after you 
experiment with it, the ordering information is in the front cover 
of the manual, or call (217) 244-4298.

No MIDI, no ability to play the music, just a simple music drawing

I already own a synthesizer (Yamaha DX100), but it is not a sampling keyboard.
I also own a 386 computer, and, with the large number of sampling soundcards
out there (SoundBlaster [Pro], etc.), I was thinking about buying a soundcard
and hooking it up to my keyboard (via a MIDI interface) to use it as a simple
sampling keyboard.  In short: can I sample sounds on the soundcard and play
them back by using the keyboard (assigning certain sounds to certain keys, etc).
Is there any software (preferrably ftp-able) that already lets me do this
(since I see it as primarily a software problem)?
Any help is appreciated.

I need a way of creating a file of type 'Midi' on the Macintosh using
Think C.  At present I am generating Standard Midi Files but I'm using the
ANSI C library of Think C which only deals with the data fork of a file. 
Any other software obviously refuses to read the file as a Standard Midi
File because it is just a generic "document" even though it has all the
right data in the data fork. I know nothing about the Toolbox so I need
details, preferably an actual code fragment, not a general instruction like
"modify the resource fork and change the file type parameter."

The question is simple: HOW TO PRINT SOMETHING???

He worked with previous versions of Score and his old FX-80 without problem.
Now he has the newest version of the program and a DJ 500, but can't print
anything!!!  It's really important for him, because he's a professional

Thanks for any ideas.

No, this doesn't sound right. I know I saw the instructions on how to

Misleading at best. If you apply tremolo to a 440 hertz tone with a Low
Frequency Oscilator with a frequency of 4 hertz, then the smallest repeating
unit in the signal is four times a second, so the frequency is actually
4 hertz. However, the ear will perceive it is 440 hertz. This is a bit
contrived though.

Another example is if you take a 880 hertz tone and permutate every second
cycle just slightly, you get, theoretically, a 440 hertz signal, but if the
permutation is small enough, you will still perceive it as 880 hertz. You
might hear a sub-harmonic though.

The fact that sub-harmonics can exist in a pitched note demonstrates the
falsity of your argument.

Cheers,

I've been using the BJ330 with Coda's Finale 2.0.1 (for PC) for about a year 
with no problems--it does require Windows and a fairly fast machine for best 
results. Is Songwright a Windows program? If so, you need to use the Canon 
BJ-130e driver (available in the Microsoft Supplemental Driver library) 
until a 330 driver without bugs is available. Otherwise, the 330 
should be able to emulate one of the IBM Proprinters and one of the 
Epsons (I forget which & don't have the manuals handy at the moment) by 
setting the dip switches in the back, but you won't get the full 360x360 
resolution that the 130e driver gives you.

Finale is expensive, but with your BJ-330 and the 130e driver you can print 
score pages up to 17x23 in size (no lie!) and the resolution is fantastic.

Is there any sound sampling program for IBM PC computers? 
I am looking for one that could play sounds by MIDI. What I mean is
that individual samples could be assigned to MIDI note numbers
and played by external MIDI sequencer or keyboard. 

It should be quit easy programming project if you use WINDOWS 3.1 functions.
As far as I remember there were some articles in PC-Magazine written 
by Mr. Petzold that could come for help. And, of course, samples should 
have the famous 16-bit resolution for high fidelity ( what ever it is ).
Delay between NOTE-ON and actual sample begin is no big problem, anyway,
if it's constant (it's controllable by external sequencer).

By the way, does WINDOWS know 16 bit-format? How about two channel mono,
is it possible to play two different samples at the same time, another
panned to left and another to the right channel?
 
Thanks,
Mikko
