I’ve put up a new version of blue at:
http://www.csounds.com/stevenyi/blue
This version has a few bug fixes as well as some new features, notably
a new soundFont viewer and the MIDI pitch generation option in the
PianoRoll. Using the MIDI pitch generation option will disregard any
loaded scale and use MIDI note values, C5 = Middle-C = 60. Values
output are in midi note numbers.
Used in conjunction with the Fluid SoundFont instrument and Engine
Output instruments that are in blueShare, one can make music by
picking a soundFont, picking a bank and preset number, and then use
the PianoRoll in MIDI mode (as well as use blueX7 with the PianoRoll
in pch mode). This, all without having to code at all in csound
(except perhaps to type in some amplitude values, which will be
addressed sometime in the next release or two).
Thanks all and enjoy!
