Hello!
I’ve successfully imported a MusicXml file using the import-musicxml function, into a Voice object. The piece I’m working with is just a melody, no chords. I wanted to extract pitch and duration information into two separate lists, to manipulate then and to create a new melody. Is it possible to do so?
hello punksterbass,
I’m not sure I understand what you’re looking for, but of course you can do this: connect the first outlet (self) of that voice object into the first inlet of a chord-seq. there you are… the 2nd outlet of this last object will give you a list of midicents. given that you’re working with a melody, you’ll need to flatten out this list. use the flat lisp function for this. the 3rd out let will give you a list of onsets, and finally the 4th outlet, a list of durations (use flat again). mind you’‘ll have to deal with onsets and durations and you’'ll have two different lists to manipulate…
hope this helps you,
best,
perti

Hi,
As perti states, you have a lot of ways to do so depending on what you want. Here is a small concise example:
The patch:
info.omp (9.7 KB)
anyhow it is not about retreiving info from musicxml file, but from OM’s music classes.

Thank you so much!
Is there a way to extract the actual rhythm tree from the object?
Nevermind, I just found it
Thank you!
