I am new to the factor language. I've installed factor and it is working. I have cloned the repository. Now what should I do next??

Simply running factor in the fr8x-editor directory (and adding the missing Ubuntu packages) did the trick.

cd /path/to/fr8x-editor /path/to/factor

So you have nothing to fix. I thought this "issue" might be helpful for others. I had no idea what to do and tried running some of the factor programs as arguments to the factor language.

I am excited to use this software. Thanks for creating it.

So that was just the factor browser starting up. I am still at a loss for how to run any of your factor programs.

mrjbq7 commented 5 years ago

You can probably run it two easy ways...

1) from your Factor browser started in the fr8x-editor directory:

“fr8x-ui” run

2) from the command line in that same directory:

/path/to/factor -run=fr8x-ui

I guess the current directory is not added by default as a “factor root” to look for source code.

A suggestion:

Make a “~/.factor-roots” file that has a single line:

/path/to/fr8x-editor

And then you can run (from anywhere):

/path/to/factor -run=fr8x-ui

Try that!

I haven’t actually run this software myself, I just like to see Factor code!

I’m really sorry to disappoint you but this isn’t a completed editor. The UI is not complete at all because I couldn’t get on with Factor’s UI library. You can use the data library to manipulate ST8 files from the Factor REPL if you wish.

Roland now makes an official FR8x editor so I suggest using that instead. While you are on their site don’t forget to grab the firmware update and free expansion packs. Happy squeezing :)

Thank you very much!!

I am now executing the fr8x-editor code. Hopefully the author offers a hand, though I suppose it will do me good to study some factor code.

The results follow. I will start combing through the source this evening.

You have done the heavy lifting to parse the files and extract the data. I'm looking to organize the data. If I need to learn factor along the way, I'll do so. I'm happy to post any useful stuff back to your github project.

I'm not promising any great results in a short time frame, but I think I need a better overview if I'm going to be successful with this instrument.

Looks like a little bit-rot from some updates in the last couple Factor releases.

I’d be happy to fix up the code to work with Factor 0.98 release (and 0.99-dev) but won’t have time until Thursday.

create-in probably got renamed to create-word-in:

A PC based editor for data files from the Roland FR-8x V-Accordion.

See wiki for attempts at understanding the format. The 'work' directory is for your own personal vocabularies.

fr8x-editor$ ~/Downloads/factor/factor -run=fr8x-ui Vocabulary does not exist name "fr8x-ui" (U) Quotation: [ c-to-factor => ] Word: c-to-factor (U) Quotation: [ [ (get-catchstack) push ] dip call => (get-catchstack) pop* ] (O) Word: command-line-startup (O) Word: run (O) Word: load-vocab (O) Word: no-vocab (O) Method: M\ object throw (U) Quotation: [ OBJ-CURRENT-THREAD special-object error-thread set-global current-continuation => error-continuation set-global [ original-error set-global ] [ rethrow ] bi ]

So I have left out some important step. Sorry to be a nuisance. I just bought an FR8x and am quite excited at playing it. This software looks like it will be of great assistance.

You can probably run it two easy ways...

1) from your Factor browser started in the fr8x-editor directory:

“fr8x-ui” run

2) from the command line in that same directory:

/path/to/factor -run=fr8x-ui

So that was just the factor browser starting up. I am still at a loss for how to run any of your factor programs.

Ok, @mrjbq7 was right above. I've fixed the create-in reference.

From the Factor REPL:

Add the vocab root "path\to\fr8x-editor" add-vocab-root . Note, this is case sensitive and is not validated.
Load the data library USING: fr8x-data ;
Load a set file. There isn't one in the repository because of potential copyright issues but you can export one from your V-Accordion or download one from Roland or another user site. Then, "setfile.st8" load-set-file . You will see a complex object on the stack, this is the decoded set.
You will now need to refer to the wiki for the chunks of the set file. IN your case, for example, if you want to find alto sax that would be in a orchestra right hand register which is in the "O_R" chunk. So dup "O_R" get-chunk will put the TR list on the stack (while leaving the full set file below it in case you want it later)
This is a list of orData objects. You can get data from them using field functions and use list combinators to apply them to the whole list. For example you can get all the names with [ custom-name>> ] map (again throw a dup in at the start if you want to keep the list around)
The patch used in each one is stored only as three numbers in the set file, in fields patch-00, patch-cc32 and patch-pc . The corresponding names are listed in the midivoices.txt and midireeds.txt files. Look in this and you will see Alto Sax is 0 0 122. So you can search the list for this with [ [ patch-cc00>> 0 = ] [ patch-cc32>> 0 = ] [ patch-pc>> 122 = ] tri and and ] filter (@mrjbq7 can probably tell you a nicer syntax for this!)

Thanks. This WORKED!

So I can parse a set and pull off some data. You have already provided documentation for the Roland files as well as translation tables to provide instrument names.

Knowing I can execute one of your functions successfully means I can start making some progress. I still have a lot to learn about factor.

Hopefully I am done with being a bother.

I always like feedback on what’s working and what isn’t with Factor. Feel free to open issues or ask questions.
