[ Top ] [ change-map ] [ Methods ]
DESCRIPTION
Return the data for a specified section and player of a given change-map object. NB: The <section> argument may require the ID of the player as well if used, for example, with the instrument-change-map subclass of this class .
ARGUMENTS
- A change-map object. - A simple key reference into the given change-map object or a list of references. NB: This reference may require a player ID if, for example, used with an instrument-change-map subclass of this class.
OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS
- The ID of the sequence from which to return the change-map data. - An integer that is the bar number for which to return the change-map data.
RETURN VALUE
The change-map data stored at the specified location within the given change-map.
EXAMPLE
;;; An example using the instrument-change-map subclass of change-map (let ((mini (make-slippery-chicken '+mini+ :ensemble '(((sax ((alto-sax tenor-sax) :midi-channel 1)))) :instrument-change-map '((1 ((sax ((1 alto-sax) (3 tenor-sax))))) (2 ((sax ((2 alto-sax) (5 tenor-sax))))) (3 ((sax ((3 alto-sax) (4 tenor-sax)))))) :set-palette '((1 ((c2 d2 g2 a2 e3 fs3 b3 cs4 fs4 gs4 ds5 f5 bf5)))) :set-map '((1 (1 1 1 1 1)) (2 (1 1 1 1 1)) (3 (1 1 1 1 1))) :rthm-seq-palette '((1 ((((4 4) h q e s s)) :pitch-seq-palette ((1 2 3 4 5))))) :rthm-seq-map '((1 ((sax (1 1 1 1 1)))) (2 ((sax (1 1 1 1 1)))) (3 ((sax (1 1 1 1 1)))))))) (cm-get-data (instrument-change-map mini) '(2 sax) 4)) => ALTO-SAX

[ Top ] [ change-map ] [ Methods ]
DESCRIPTION
Return the nearest change-data object to the specified section within the given change-map. NB: The section may require a player ID if used, for example, with an instrument-change-map subclass of change-map.
ARGUMENTS
- A section indication, either as a single reference ID or a list of reference IDs into the given change-map. - A change-map object.
RETURN VALUE
Returns a change-data object.

NAME
change-map File: change-map.lsp Class Hierarchy: named-object -> linked-named-object -> sclist -> circular-sclist -> assoc-list -> recursive-assoc-list -> sc-map -> change-map Version: 1.1.0 Project: slippery chicken (algorithmic composition) Purpose: Implementation of the change-map class where, unlike normal sc-maps (data is given for each sequence) gives data sporadically when the parameter changes, for instance tempo. It is assumed that maps will be typed in the order in which sections occur so that previous-data slots can be kept up-to-date; also, unless all data will be given, that the sections (but not instrument ids) will be in integer sequential order so that nearest sections can be returned when given a non-existent section reference. For example, the following change-map indicates tempo (though tempo-maps have their own class now). It has sections within sections so that the tempo for section '(1 2 3) can be defined, that is, section 1 has subsections 1, 2, and 3 and subsection 2 has further subsections 1, 2, and 3. This can be nested to any depth. The tempo information itself is given in sublists where (3 27) means that in the third sequence of the section, the tempo is 27. (3 2 27) means the 2nd bar of the third sequence has tempo 27: when only two numbers are in the list, bar 1 is assumed. The trick is, that this tempo then remains, as would be expected, until the next tempo change is indicated, which means that requesting the tempo of section (2 2 3) with any sequence and bar in the map below would return 25, because that is the last tempo given in section 1 and no tempo is defined for section 2. (setf x (make-change-map 'test nil '((0 ((3 27) (9 3 45))) (1 ((1 ((1 21) (5 28) (8 35) (3 2 40) (3 1 54))) (2 ((1 ((1 23) (6 28) (18 35))) (2 ((2 2 24) (7 28) (18 22))) (3 ((3 34) (7 28) (18 42))))) (3 ((1 22) (5 34) (10 5 25))))) (4 ((1 ((1 21) (5 28) (8 36) (3 2 40) (3 1 55))) (2 ((1 22) (5 34) (10 5 103))))) (5 ((2 28) (6 3 45))) (10 ((1 ((1 21) (5 28) (8 37) (3 2 40) (3 1 56))) (2 ((1 22) (5 34) (10 5 27)))))))) You have to be careful with change-maps however as the nesting is flexible and therefore ambiguous. For instance, in the following the bcl, tape1 etc. ids are not subsections of section 1, rather these are the hint pitches assigned to the instruments in section 1 (which has no subsections). This is where the last-ref-required class slot comes in: If this slot is t (this is the second argument to make-change-map) then the last reference in a call to cm-get-data is always respected, i.e. not the last data given will be returned when the section doesn't exist, rather the last data for this reference. E.g. In the following map, if last-ref-required were nil, then the call to (cm-get-data x '(2 tape2) 1) would fail (because we can't find nearest data when references aren't numbers), but because it's t, we get the last data given for tape2 and return cs5.
