Hey @Woyten got a couple small things I can look into?

Woyten commented 4 years ago

@AJTJ For sure! :wink: What are you interested in? Audio effects? Graphics? MIDI? Tuning theory? Did you manage to compile and run something?

Woyten commented 4 years ago

I think audio effects are the most interesting and straight-forward feature that can be looked into. It requires some investigation on how they work and how they can be cast into code but it touches only a tiny bit of the code base.

Hello! Very excited to find this project. I have a toy project that I started while learning rust, with the goal of generating multi-dimensional pitch lattices similar to the ones Ben Johnston created for his work.

Here it is: https://github.com/jcpst/johnston

Doesn't do a whole lot yet, but since you seem to have a vision of building an ecosystem, I'd like go in the direction of being compatible with that.

Welcome @jcpst!

The tune library still misses good just intonation features like diamonds and lattices. If you could spice up the library with your knowledge about those topics, I would be very happy about it. :smiley: If you prefer to keep your code base separate, you could consider using the abstractions of this library by specifying a crate dependency. This would be a helpful experiment for me to see whether the abstractions are tailored in a meaningful way.

To provide a rough overview of my current vision, I created #32. The bullet-points aren't fixed. If you think something is missing, please let m know.

Looking at your code you seem to be modelling intervals. A part of my vision is to maintain a list of intervals/commas (maybe based on http://www.huygens-fokker.org/docs/intervals.html) and to calculate whether they are tempered out by a given val. Some throw-away code dealing with commas has been pushed to the theory branch.

At the moment I am focusing on composing my own music. This means, I will be mainly working on recording features of the microwave sub-crate.
