import std.file : write;

import musicpulator;

void main()
{
  auto chord = new SongChord(4,1,1);

  auto chordEntry = new SongChordEntry
  (
    16,
    2,
    [
        new SongNote(MusicalNote.a, 8, 0,5, 0),
        new SongNote(MusicalNote.e, 8, 8, 5, 0),
        new SongNote(MusicalNote.cSharp, 8, 16, 5, 0),
        new SongNote(MusicalNote.b, 8, 24, 4, 0)
    ],
    chord
  );

  chord.addChordEntry(chordEntry);

  auto sequence = new SongSequence(MusicalNote.eFlat, 10, 5, [2,4,8,99]);

  auto track = new SongTrack(sequence);
  track.setMetaData("bpm", 140);
  track.setMetaAutomation("bpm", 0.5, 0);
  track.velocity.value = 0.6;
  track.wet.addValue(0.7);
  track.wet.addValue(0.75);

  auto part = new SongPart(SongPartTitle.chorus);
  part.addTrack(track);
  part.addTrack(track);
  part.addTrack(track);

  auto tack2 = new SongTrack(chord);
  tack2.name = "Strings";
  tack2.wet.addValue(0.5);
  tack2.wet.addValue(0.7);
  tack2.wet.addValue(0.8);
  tack2.velocity.addValue(0.5);

  auto song = new Song("My song");
  song.addPart(part);

  write("test.json", song.toJson());
  write("test.xml", song.toXml());
}

int metaInt = track.getMetaData!int("keyOfData2");

Get meta-automation of the track (SongTrack)

auto metaAutomation = track.getMetaAutomation("keyOfMetaAutomation");

Get the scales of a track (SongTrack)

This will only yield results if the track contains a chord or melody.

A sequence has no scales.

auto scales = track.scales;

foreach (scale; scales)
{
  ...
}

Get the progression of a track (SongTrack)

This will only yield a result if the track contains a melody.

Chords or sequences has no melodic progression.

auto progression = track.progression;

Get the name of an automation clip (SongAutomation)

auto name = automation.name;

Get the values of an automation clip (SongAutomation)

auto values = automation.values;

Get the base value of an automation clip (SongAutomation)

auto value = automation.value;

// Or

auto value2 = automatiob.values[0];

Example Usage (Manipulation)

At the moment there is no way to automatically convert music into song objects, but in the future there will be support for such automation.

That means right now you have to manually construct your song objects.

const octave = 5;
const sequenceEntries[2,2,2,2];

auto sequence = new SongSequence(MusicalNote.note, bar, octave, sequenceEntries);

const step = 0;
const octave = 6;
const bar = 0;

auto note = new SongNote(MusicalNote.gFlat, length, step, octave, bar);

...

auto note = new SongNote(MusicalNote.c, step, octave, chordEntry);

auto chord = new SongChord(entries, bar);

...

const positiveHarmonics = 1;

auto chord = new SongChord(entries, bar, positiveHarmonics);

...

const negativeHarmonics = 1;

auto chord = new SongChord(entries, bar, positiveHarmonics, negativeHarmonics);

Add a chord entry to a chord (SongChord)

chord.addChordEntry(chordEntry);

Creating a new chord entry (SongChordEntry)

const length = 16;
const bar = 0;

auto chordEntry = new SongChordEntry(length, bar);

...

auto chordEntry = new SongChordEntry(length, bar, chord);

...

auto notes = [note1, note2, note3];

auto chordEntry = new SongChordEntry(length, bar, notes);

...

auto chordEntry = new SongChordEntry(length, bar, notes, chord);

Set the length of a chord entry (SongChordEntry)

The length will always be relative to the maximum size left based on all other chord entry lengths.

Which means the maximum size is 32, but if there are an entry with a length of 16 already then the length will be 16 even if set higher.

This makes sure that it creates accurate music.

chordEntry.length = 32;

Set the bar of a chord entry (SongChordEntry)

chordEntry.bar = 4;

Add a song note to a chord entry (SongChordEntry)

chordEntry.addNote(note);

Convert all notes in the entry to flat (SongChordEntry)

chordEntry.convertToFlat();

Convert all notes in the entry from flat (SongChordEntry)

chordEntry.convertFromFlat();

Creating a new track (SongTrack)

auto track = new SongTrack(chord);

...

auto track = new SongTrack(melody);

...

auto track = new SongTrack(sequence);

Set the chord, melody or sequence of a track (SongTrack)

This will erase all data that the track holds and replace it with the new data!

track.chord = chord;

...

track.melody = melody;

...

track.sequence = sequence;

Set the name of a track (SongTrack)

track.name = "Strings";

...

track.name = "Kicks"

Set the bar of a track (SongTrack)

track.bar = 4;

Set the volume (Or other automation) of a track (SongTrack)

This also works for:

  • track.velocity
  • track.dry
  • track.wet
  • Any meta automation added to the track
track.volume.value = 0.65;

...

track.volume.addValue(0.75);
track.volume.addValue(0.7);
track.volume.addValue(0.65);

...

const automationPoint = 2;

track.volume.modifyValue(0.65, automationPoint);

Creating a new automation clip (SongAutomation)

auto automation = new SongAutomation("My Automation Clip");

...

const initialValue = 0.8;

auto automation = new SongAutomation("My Automation Clip", initialValue);

Set the value/values of an automation clip (SongAutomation)

automation.value = 0.65;

...

automation.addValue(0.75);
automation.addValue(0.7);
automation.addValue(0.65);

...

const automationPoint = 2;

automation.modifyValue(0.65, automationPoint);

Creating a new part (SongPart)

auto part = new SongPart(SongPartTitle.chorus);

Set the bar of a part (SongPart)

part.bar = 8;

Add a track to a part (SongPart)

part.addTrack(track);

Creating a new song (Song)

auto song = new Song("Super Artist - Super Song");

Add a part to a song (Song)

song.addPart(part);

Creating a new musical scale (MusicalScale)

auto scale = new MusicalScale(MusicalScaleName.cMajor, MusicalNote.c, MusicalScaleType.major);

Creating a new musical scale note (MusicalScaleNote)

auto scaleNote = new MusicalScaleNote(MusicalNote.c);

...

const octaveIncrementer = 1;

auto scaleNote = new MusicalScaleNote(MusicalNote.c, octaveIncrementer);

Convert a note into a flat note

Not all notes have a relative flat note since it only gives flat notes that are part of a proper scale.

This also works with SongNote.

auto flatNote = convertToFlatNote(MusicalNote.g);
// flatNote is gFlat

auto sameNote = convertToFlatNote(MusicalNote.f);
// sameNote is f

Convert a flat note into a natural note

This also works with SongNote.

auto note = convertFromFlatNote(MusicalNote.dFlat);
// note is cSharp

auto sameNote = convertFromFlatNote(MusicalNote.a);
// sameNote is a

Translate (Convert) a set of notes into flat notes

This also works with SongNote.

auto flatNotes = translateToFlatNotes([MusicalNote.cSharp, MusicalNote.e, MusicalNote.gSharp]);
// flatNotes is [dFlat, e, aFlat]

Translate (Convert) a set of notes from flat notes

This also works with SongNote.

auto notes = translateFromFlatNotes([MusicalNote.eFlat, MusicalNote.gFlat, MusicalNote.cFlat]);
// notes is [dSharp, fSharp, b];

Translate scale note to natural note

auto note = translateToNaturalNote(scaleNote);

Translate a set of scale notes to natural notes

auto scaleNotes = [scaleNote1, scaleNote2, scaleNote3];

auto naturalNotes = translateToNaturalNotes(scaleNotes);
