Dear all,
A major and official new version (0.6) of Antescofo and AscoGraph has just been released.
For real-time Score Following, this version includes a brand new version of the machine listener out of 2 years of intensive R&D and tests by our colleague @cuvillier. It provides great relief (i.e. robustness) during concerts and for the first time we can say that Antescofo is safely polyphonic without any tweaking as can be seen in the above video.
The Antescofo Action Language has also gone through major extensions and revisions. To prove this to you, this version comes with the official release of the first “Antescofo Composer Tutorial (Part I)” featuring a step-by-step REMAKE of Boulez’ Anthemes 2 that can be used in classrooms or by composers. This tutorial is dedicated to the memory of David Wessel who has among the first teachers of Antescofo in a classroom outside Ircam. Max Users will find this tutorial in the EXTRA menu after installation. PureData users will find it directly in the Antescofo Pd Folders.
Finally, AscoGraph has gone through major upgrades with a more robust MusicXML conversion.
Refer to the highly detailed Antescofo Language Reference for details: http://support.ircam.fr/docs/Antescofo/AntescofoReference.pdf
Looking forward to your inputs, suggestions and practice sharing on this Forum!
