Chorale Composer 1.0

[Heinrich Taube]

Chorale Composer 1.0 is available for download, here is the homepage  
where you can download the app and also read about it.

http://camil.music.uiuc.edu/software/choralecomposer/

in a nutshell: Chorale Composer is a juce appt that lets university  
students practice music theory with automatic feedback . it also lets  
teachers generate homework, keys, and pratice templates. You can  
download example student templates from the Courses section on the  
homepage, there is also a demo teacher template (xml) you can download  
as well.

Chorale Composer is also great app to use to learn about the Bach  
Chorales! Almost all of them are there, if you just double click the  
app without any exercise the app opens the bach chorale book.

its important to understand that the app is analyzing music on the  
fly,  that is , when you are looking at a choral, for example, the  
theory line and non-harmonic tone identification is computed and  
displayed in real time (try dragging notes around to see). the  
analysis is blindingly fast, it will do the entire bach chorales in  
under 3 seconds.  If you want to see "annotations" that the app can  
add to the music you can turn them on in the View menu, then hover  
your mouse over the labels to read more.

this is release 1.0 so there are sure to be bugs. that said, we have  
worked very hard to make 1.0 pedagogically useful, with a clean,  
minimalist GUI that we hope people will find visually pleasing and fun  
to work with.  hopefully the app is self-documenting (assuming you  
understand music theory); you can use the Help menu to read  
explanations of various features and also send us feedback

best,

Is it still possible to run on Linux as of ver 1.0? I don't see a download link for the Linux version.

Hello list,

 

I'm trying to use Grace with stroke, downloaded paint.scm from Rick Taube's website but when I try to load it into Grace, I get the message

 

"error: end of input encountered while in a string: ... (load "c:\ paint.scm")...

 

I've moved the file around, tried loading it with SAL...

 

any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Did you load from the File menu or use a lisp statement?  I know there  
is function missing that prevents the sal load statement from working  
in an edit buffer.  i will try to make a bug fix release in the next  
two weeks to address this and some other issues that ive noticed from  
teaching.

my apologies to those that have sent me mail the past month, ive been  
very busy with other work and cant find much time to look at cm  
problems. ill try to be more responsive but im still really busy...

Perhaps you meant two backslashes? "c:\\paint.scm".  As it is
above, it looks like a quoted space or something -- I can imagine
trouble in this vicinity.  (In Scheme, to get a backslash into a
string constant, you have to quote it via backslash: "\\" is one
backslash).

:(string-length "\\")
