... J.C.'s tune finder finds four identical copies of this tune on the net. Here is the original: X: 1 T: Dan O'Connell's S: "Johnny O'Leary of Sliabh Luachra"...
Thanks Phil: I copied it from Zouki. The speed (Q:300)was way to fast for Abcedit & I added the line breaks. Anyhoo it was just some funny little glitch. I...
... You might want to check on Abcedit's playing speed; Zouki knows whereof he plays (so to speak) when it comes to Irish music. Q:300 means 300 default...
... Latest version seems to be 1.18.18. I believe that this includes a fix for transposing from one key to another, a problem with quotation marks in words...
Thanks Phil. Any Abcedit users know how to set/change the default speed? The Polka I entered plays at 2xs the speed intended by Zouki. I changed the default...
Hi everybody. I have another question, that it is the reverse of the last one: How write the last syllable of a word and the first syllable of the next word...
... In ABC y use a tilde (~) to join the syllables. (I don't know how ABCedit deals with that.) X:1 K:C c C w: Ti~a-mo For more information, please read the...
The trick here is to use the "invisible space" that ABC provides. What you do is put a tilde (~) between the "Ti" and the "a-mo", rather than a space. So it...
I am a slightly experienced Abcedit. That is a great trick for joining syllables w/~. The example worked in Abcedit but I liked the spacing better with a...
... Oddly enough that works in BarFly too. However, its meaning is undefined, and you are relying on an undocumented feature of the software, so if you put a...
... The meaning of "~" is undefined? I didn't realize that. Ah... I see... I just looked at Steve Mansfield's ABC tutorial where I learned this from, and I...
Dear ABCusers: Yesterday a was looking at the ABC Plus Proyect (Guido Gonzatos's page) and I dicover a new Manual. Take a look of it. I think is great.....
further to my post of yesterday re: using sed with abc, I would also be interested to learn from abc users who have used PHP and perl as a tool for parsing...
Phil Taylor posted the following & I see no problem with his reasoning. ... Below is the tune I want to play back. It plays at the desired speed when pasted...
MusiKatz escreveu: [...] ... [...] Usually, in common music notation, the tempo reference is the time unit of the meter, e.g. 1/4 (crotchet) in time signatures...
... That's very odd. It used to be the case that abc2win (or rather its player program, PlayQabc) had a notorious bug which caused it to play at the wrong...
I may have a beta version of ABC2Win. When I paste Dan O'Connell's into ABC2Win (directly from Zouki or this thread) it plays at the desired speed without...
... OK. Maybe abc2win has been corrected since I last looked at it. ... You shouldn't have to do that, provided that the tune has an L:1/8 field (if that is...
... If M:2/4 and there is no L: field then all programs will assume L:1/4 according to the abc standard. If there is an L: field present then abc2midi should...
Somthing that may not be totally obvious but is nonetheless important, abc, being text tokens, is easily open to analysis through common text-processing tools...
I've been trying out ABCEdit and I like it much better now that it types out what I type in. I do have another question. When I press F1, it plays the tune...
... I know that abcEdit uses abc2midi to generate a midi file, but I don't know what program it uses to play that file. That's where you need a loop setting...
... I downloaded the midi & it played at the correct speed in Windows Media. I imported it into Mid2Abc & it played at the correct speed. I used Mid2abc...
When I refer to Mid2Abc it is usually Bernard Parkin's Mid2Abc v 2.02 http://claremusic.tripod.com/newhome.htm I suspect there are other applications w/similar...
... OK, that's not unreasonable. It looks as if your version of abc2midi no longer supports the Q:300 format for tempo. I believe this is deprecated in...
Actually, this is the main reason that my ABC Tune Finder site only deals with ABC so far. It's the only online music format I've found that 1) has enough ...
Hi there folks. Being quite new to abc (and being quite amazed at what it and the software that has grown up with it can do), I was wondering if anyone has...
