meico v0.8.18

v0.8.18

• Enhancement of class meico.mpm.elements.metadata.Metadata so it can be instatiated with related resources.

meico v0.8.17

v0.8.17

• Made class meico.midi.InstrumentsDirectory public so it can be used outside of its package.
• Extended method meico.mei.Mei.makePart().
  • This addresses issue #23 where the staff label did not suffice to properly indicate which General MIDI instrument should be chosen during the MIDI export.
  • Thus, support for MEI element instrDef has been added. It should be used as follows.

    <staffDef clef.line="2" clef.shape="G" lines="5" n="1" label="unhelpful label">
        <instrDef midi.instrname="Violin" midi.instrnum="40"/>
    </staffDef>
    

    Only one of the attributes midi.instrnum (prioritized) and midi.instrname is required. The former should have values from 0 to 127 (not 1 to 128!). A list of General MIDI instrument names and numbers can be found on Wikipedia (here the numbers must be decreased by 1!).
  • Meico will add a programChangeMap to the MSM part during export and use this instead of the label to generate the corresponding MIDI messages during MIDI export.
  • The MEI Coverage Documentation has been updated accordingly and provides further information.

meico v0.8.16

v0.8.16

• Little tweak in method meico.mpm.maps.DynamicsMap.renderDynamicsToMap(): If a dynamicsMap does not have a dynamics element at date 0.0 but there are notes to be performed before the first dynamics instruction, they now get a default velocity value.

meico v0.8.15

v0.8.15

• Little tweak in method meico.mei.Mei.processMeasure() as it struggled to remove and inserting timeSignature elements from timeSignatureMap when the measure does not comply with the given time signature.
• Indexing correction in method meico.mpm.elements.styles.defs.AccentuationPatternDef.addAccentuationToArrayList() so accentuations are added in the correct order to patterns.
• In method meico.mei.Mei.processSyl() attribute wordpos was mandatory (with values i or m) to process attribte con. This did not work for some cases. So, wordpos is now being ignored and con will always be processed.

meico v0.8.14

v0.8.14

• Added method meico.mei.Helper.addUUID() which encapsulates the generation of unique xml:id attributes. The corresponding code in method meico.msm.Msm.addIds() has been adapted.
• Added another method addAccentuationPattern() to class meico.mpm.elements.maps.MetricalAccentuationMap which allows setting attribute stickToMeasures.
• Minor fix in method meico.mei.Mei.addArticulationToMap() which generated a noteid string from null instead of setting the string null.
• After update 0.8.12, method getCurrentTimeSignature() in class meico.mei.Helper required more context as input to determine the time signature information. It has been updated accordingly. This required adaptations also in several other methods in classes meico.mei.Helper and meico.mei.Mei which have been done, too.

meico v0.8.13

v0.8.13

• Fix of the processing of <accid> elements where the parent <note> has different graphical and gestural pitch, see issue #17.

meico v0.8.12

v0.8.12

• Enhancement of the processing of MEI tie element.
• Bugfix in method meico.mei.Mei.processBreath() that generated a wrong default articulation.
• Bugfix in method meico.mpm.elements.maps.ArticulationMap.renderArticulationToMap_noMillisecondModifiers(): NullPointerException in an error message.
• Optimization of methods meico.mei.Helper.getPreviousSiblingElement() and getNextSiblingElement().
• An extensive overhaul of method meico.mei.Mei.processMeasure() which is now able to handle the situation that no global time signature is given (via scoreDef) and only locally defined in the staffDef elements.
• Some code polishing.

meico v0.8.11

v0.8.11

• Another bugfix: The endid of MEI tie elements was not properly resolved.

meico v0.8.10

v0.8.10

• Bugfix: If an MEI space element was in a layer environment, it was falsely interpreted as textual gap. However, it is a musical gap and should be interpreted as rest.

meico v0.8.8

v0.8.8

• Added a getter to class meico.mpm.Mpm to provide access to the metadata: getMetadata().
• Added support for MEI verse and syl elements, so they are converted to MSM lyrics elements.
• Added support for MEI dynam and tempo elements that are positioned within a verse environment.
• New method processSpace() for processing MEI space elements. These elements are usually interpreted as rests. However, this should not be done when they encode a textual space, e.g. in lyrics. That is what the method ensures.
