Rhythm library

OpenMusic
#1

Greetings All,

Could anyone help?

I was wondering if there is an openmusic library that can process rhythmic morphing in the way that the Profile library deals with pitch. I’ve looked but have not found. Perhaps I haven’t looked in the right places…

Ideally something that can deal with a initial state that gradually reaches intermediate stages ending in the final and state. I guess that’s the definition of morphing however! If anyone has any ideas or suggestions they will be much appreciated!!

Thank you !

Hi – I think you should post this on the regular OpenMusic user group
This one is about Sound Synthesis and Processing.

— there’s many ways to achieve interpolation between two rhythms. To my knowledge no dedicated tool is in a library.

An example is given in the text “Knitting and Weaving: Using OpenMusic to Generate Canonic Musical Material” by Serge Lemouton and Asbjørn Schaathun in the OM Composer’s Book vol. 2, in case you have access to it.

Hi Jean,

Many thanks for your advice -
I do indeed have OM composer books
1&2. Will have a look at the chapter
you suggest.

Apologies for inappropriate posting!

Best wishes,
