Hi, I am trying to export a chord partial analysis of up to 20 partials using Partiels to use them in Openmusic. However, when I try to export as sdif file it prompts me to enter the Frame Signature, Matrix Signature and Column name, otherwise, it won’t export, based on previous knowledge I know that 1TRC should be the frame signature for harmonic analysis but I tried and it did not work out, does anyone know what should I put in for those parameters?
Thanks a lot.
Hello,
The SDIF support in Partiels is mainly there for compatibility with some old usages and documents, but it is very limited, particularly for exporting data. I recommend that you use a more open file format, such as CSV or JSON.
Best regards,

Hi, Guillot,
Thank you for your rapid response, just saw it. Appreciate it very much! However, the main reason why I want to use SDIF file is because when I do the partial analysis, it exports 20 files and I know how to combine the SDIF files in open music but not sure about the other files. Is there a workaround for the other files too?
Here is a thread related to a related issue (regarding CSV) that might be useful: How to import data from Excel. Otherwise, you can find information about the SDIF format here: SDIF Standard Description Types. I think you have to define both the frame and matrix signatures.
Thank you, will check it out and see if it works!
