Converting into another concept may need context this value does not carry (a root, an octave, a key). Where it is missing the library assumes a default and says so; where a step drops information it is listed.

  Path point-set → note-set · needs root, octave

  • Assumed root C. No root was given, so the value is read from C.
  • Assumed octave 4. No octave was given, so octave 4 is used.

• Pitch-class set · Pitch-class numbers

  Cm11#5

  Path point-set → note-set → chord · needs root, octave

  • Assumed root C. No root was given, so the value is read from C.
  • Assumed octave 4. No octave was given, so octave 4 is used.
  • Drops octave, voicing. C4-Bb4-D5-F5-Ab5-C6-Eb6 is named Cm11#5 (also Ab6/9#11/C); register and voicing are dropped.

  Path point-set → note-set → grid-position · needs root, octave, layout

  • Assumed root C. No root was given, so the value is read from C.
  • Assumed octave 4. No octave was given, so octave 4 is used.
  • Assumed layout aura. No layout was given, so positions are read on the aura layout.
  • Assumed root C3. No root was given, so the value sounds above C3.
  • Drops alternative positions. C4 has 2 positions, Bb4 has 2 positions, D5 has 2 positions, F5 has 2 positions on aura; the one nearest (0, 0) is kept.

• Note distribution · MIDI : weight pairs
