|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
This document is provided as a supplement to the <em>MMA Reference
|
|
|
|
|
Manual</em> which lists all of the commands in the program and helpful
|
|
|
|
|
information which can be used to create your own "style" files. If you are a
|
|
|
|
|
newcomer to MMA, you
|
|
|
|
|
should also have a look at the <em>MMA Tutorial</em> for some "getting
|
|
|
|
|
started" information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The information on these HTML pages has been generated directly
|
|
|
|
|
from the library files in your MMA library. Each
|
|
|
|
|
entry uses the filename as a header and then lists the various
|
|
|
|
|
defined grooves.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
You should be able to use any of the grooves listed in the "STDLIB"
|
|
|
|
|
section in your files without
|
|
|
|
|
using other directives. However, if you have files in other
|
|
|
|
|
locations you will need to need to
|
|
|
|
|
explicitly load the library file(s) with a <em>Use</em> directive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The filenames are in all lowercase. These are the actual filenames
|
|
|
|
|
used in the library. If you are loading files with the <em>Use</em>
|
|
|
|
|
directive you must use the same case (please note that
|
|
|
|
|
typographic case applies only to the filename---this is operating system
|
|
|
|
|
dependant). <em>Groove</em> commands are case-insensitive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Following each groove description is a boxed number in the form
|
|
|
|
|
<B>(4)</B>. This indicates the sequence size of the groove. Next, is
|
|
|
|
|
a list of tracks and instrument names. This shows the first voice or
|
|
|
|
|
drum note defined for each track---it is quite possible that the track
|
|
|
|
|
uses other voices. This data is included so that you can see what
|
|
|
|
|
tracks are active.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The library files supplied with MMA contain embedded documentation.
|
|
|
|
|
The <em>-Dxh</em> and <em>-Dxl</em> MMA command line options extract the following
|
|
|
|
|
information from the each library file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<UL>
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> The filename from the "Doc File" directive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> The file description from the "Doc Note" directive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-29 06:47:40 +00:00
|
|
|
<LI> Any user variables documented in "DocVar" directives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-11-10 08:07:56 +00:00
|
|
|
<LI> Each groove description: This is the optional text following a
|
|
|
|
|
<em>DefGroove</em> directive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-29 06:47:40 +00:00
|
|
|
<UL>
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> The sequence size. This is extracted from the current groove
|
2006-11-10 08:07:56 +00:00
|
|
|
information and was set with the <em>SeqSize</em> directive. It is
|
|
|
|
|
displayed in a small box after the groove description.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-29 06:47:40 +00:00
|
|
|
<LI> A "summary" of the voices used in the groove. Note that a
|
2006-11-10 08:07:56 +00:00
|
|
|
different voice or MIDI note is possible for each bar in the
|
|
|
|
|
sequence size; however, this listing only lists the selection for
|
|
|
|
|
the first bar.

<P>If you find that you don't have some of the grooves listed below in your distribution
|
2007-04-29 06:47:40 +00:00
|
|
|
you need to run the program mklibdoc.py to update these docs. Not all style files are
|
|
|
|
|
distributed in the default MMA distribution.
