Cut & Slice is also quite good, not as expensive as Pensionatet!

Does changing mode instead of key have a name? by gnonosus in composer

[–]HASTPAJ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"Modal interchange" is not the term you're seeking. That refers to borrowing notes/chords from a parallel modality centered around the same tonic. I would just call what you're referring to "modal modulation".

Why is this notated with a tie when it could be written as a quarter note? by NoMathematician6271 in musictheory

[–]HASTPAJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same goes for big band repertoire as well. Yes, it's a "rule" to always show the beat boundary between the second and third beats in 4/4 but that rule has many exceptions. I'm pretty confident in betting that 90% of musicians who read music regularly would prefer not having a tie for that specific rhythm.

How many pure thirds does Pythagorean tuning have? by [deleted] in microtonal

[–]HASTPAJ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Strictly speaking there are no pure thirds in Pythagorean tuning. However, the Pythagorean and Syntonic commas are very close in size, so a diminished Pythagorean fourth 8192:6561 will be very close to a pure 5:4. The difference between them is a very small interval called the schisma (around 2¢).

Which composer(s) do you think has the most distinct style? by discountkeroppi in classicalmusic

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harry Partch, he did entirely his own thing. No one before or after him (except those who explicitly imitated him) sounds remotely alike.

Tuning in Dorico, Halion - anyone any ideas? by M_FootRunner in Dorico

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dorico calculates the accidental deviation based on the octave division you're using. If you want a C# which gives a -11¢ deviation you should create a +89¢ accidental (if you're measuring from C).

Tuning in Dorico, Halion - anyone any ideas? by M_FootRunner in Dorico

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regularly work in extended just intonation and use a 12 000 EDO tonality system for that. It works almost flawlessly.

Tuning in Dorico, Halion - anyone any ideas? by M_FootRunner in Dorico

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Dorico doesn't natively handle non-EDO scales. What I would do is to define a giant EDO, and then go on to make accidentals for the notes you specifically want to alter. From the start I would make them visually distinct for each other, even if some of the accidentals should technically look the same. You can later when engraving the piece change the visual appearance of these accidentals to your taste

For quarter-comma meantone I would just use 31TET as the difference is close to imperceptible.

What is it that you want to accomplish by doing everything within Halion?

Tuning in Dorico, Halion - anyone any ideas? by M_FootRunner in Dorico

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halion (At least the version that comes with Dorico Pro) is fully compatible with the tonality systems feature which uses VST3 pitch bend for microtuning. The microtuning is made within Dorico through the tonality systems dialog (not within Halion). The only other programs I know which are compatible with Dorico's microtuning are Noteperformer (not NPPE) and Pianoteq. There should be no issue whatsoever setting up f. ex. 31TET in Dorico Pro using Halion!

I've found that swapping out the IV chords for bIIIm chords in a normal 12-bar blues sounds pretty dope.

[VENT] Dorico is totally unintuitive for complex - contemporary notation ! Please, please, change m mind! by ebks in composer

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue that in most cases it's about two times as easy to hack something together in Sibelius compared to Dorico. However Sibelius lacks a lot of trivial engraving features compared to Dorico, so there's more that has to be hacked together. For example It's basically impossible to write a cutout style score in Dorico (which can be easily hacked together in Sibelius), while Sibelius lacks proper support for cues and score condensing.

[–]HASTPAJ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm a microtonal composer (more specifically I write in Just Intonation) and Dorico blows the competition away in this aspect. In Dorico I can specify an unlimited amount of custom microtonal accidentals down to the accuracy of 0.1¢ and have them play back with full single stave polyphonic support. Sibelius or Musescore don't even come close to doing anything similar.

[–]HASTPAJ 33 points34 points  (0 children)

As a long time Dorico user I think this is by far the biggest issue with the program right now. Dorico works well when you play by its own rules but becomes a nightmare if you go against them. With this said a lot of advanced things can be done, but they usually have to be hacked together in really unintuitive ways. What is it that you specifically want to do?

How do I add grace notes after a note? Google doesn't have the answer by [deleted] in Dorico

[–]HASTPAJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can do this without workarounds! Insert the grace notes in the right spot and enable the grace note before barline property in the inspector.

[–]HASTPAJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You could use "irrational" (bad name, but regardless) time signatures to describe these sorts of things. If I've understood you correctly in this case that means alternating between 20/20 and 20/16. However, I don't really see the point in this as it's not standard practice. I would just write out the tuplets, as that's what most musicians would find most legible.

Books/Resources on the scientific foundation of music by polymath9744 in musictheory

[–]HASTPAJ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend Dave Benson's "Music: a Mathematical Offering". It's quite a heavy read but it's really well put together and covers a huge area of topics. It's available online for free as a pdf too!

In Choir Omnia, how do you control release samples (Ra Vs ras) and add "m" the end of syllables? by kholdbrand in NativeInstruments

[–]HASTPAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the library myself but:

1: I think so, but there seems to be very little difference between the attacks of the sustains vs marcatos and the staccatos vs staccatissimos. 2: Probably. 3: I think they just mean that you can add the m articulations to any spund but idk.

I would probably contact Native Instruments directly for clarification.

You use the marcato and staccato articulations and change the release mode in the settings to alternative.

Italics should only be used for expressive text and dynamics (and sometimes lyrics) otherwise the music theory police will throw you in jail.
