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.

  • Note set · Letter names

    exact
    C4-D4-Eb4-F4-G4-Ab4-B4

    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

    lossy
    0-2-3-5-7-8-11

    Path point-set → pc-set

    • Drops octave placement, doubling. Offsets fold into the octave above the root.
  • Grid position · Cells col,row (optional layout@origin: prefix)

    lossy
    aura@C3:3,0 2,2 3,1 2,3 4,1 2,4 5,1

    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, Eb4 has 2 positions, G4 has 2 positions, Ab4 has 2 positions, B4 has 2 positions on aura; the one nearest (0, 0) is kept.
  • Note distribution · MIDI : weight pairs

    exact
    60:1,62:1,63:1,65:1,67:1,68:1,71:1

    Path point-set → note-set → note-space · 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 distribution · Twelve weights

    lossy
    1,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,1

    Path point-set → pc-set → pc-space

    • Drops octave placement, doubling. Offsets fold into the octave above the root.
  • Set class · Forte name

    lossy
    7-32A

    Path point-set → pc-set → pc-set-analysis

    • Drops octave placement, doubling. Offsets fold into the octave above the root.
    • Drops transposition. The set's Tn class (Forte name with A/B, prime form); the transposition is dropped.

    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.
  • Pitch class

    Path point-set → note-set → chord → pitch-class · 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.
