Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

This paper reports on the development in the MIDIFORTH computer music system of context-sensitive editing features, such as the ability to highlight MIDI events based on their position within a melodic or rhythmic pattern, and on pitch or other relationships to surrounding events. The software mechanism that implements this is discussed, and some examples of the musical desirability of such features are presented.
