pwgl-users: Mensural / non-mensural notation
Dear Mika, I am currently reading the ENP documentation again and trying to enter some short scores manually. Obviously, you put quite some effort into documenting ENP. Nevertheless, there are some things I am missing. Apologies if I missed something obvious. Is there some way to select either mensural or non-mensuaral notation when adding instruments or voices to the score? When adding parts there are explicitly both options, but it appears "Add Instrument" results in a non-mensural part, while "Add Ensemble" enters mensural parts (BTW: perhaps "Add Ensemble" would be better named "Set Ensemble" as all other parts are removed). If I have a piano (added as solo ensemble in mensural notation) and then add further voices, these voices are again in non-mensural notation (shown when the "split" view is selected). Question: how to select mensural or non-mensural notation before adding voices, instruments etc. BTW: It would be nice to have some option to convert between mensural and non-mensural notation, but I understand that such an operation would involve quantisation, so that is best not done by a simple switch... Thanks for your help! Best wishes, Torsten -- Dr Torsten Anders Course Leader, Music Technology University of Bedfordshire Park Square, Room A315 http://www.torsten-anders.de(Continue reading)
