Short: General purpose instrument tuner & metronome Author: Juha Niemimäki Uploader: jniemima mail student oulu fi (JN) Type: mus/misc Version: 0.1 Architecture: ppc-amigaos >= 4.0.0 PlayMate 0.1 - A general purpose instrument tuner and metronome for AmigaOS - Written by Juha Niemimäki, 2006 Requirements: - AmigaOS 4 - MUI - AHI Main features: - Configurable tuner profiles, note range A0 - C8 (27.5 Hz ... 4186.01 Hz) - Adjustable beats per minute (30-360) and beats per measure values (1-9) - Lua 5.1 powered configuration support Adding new tuning profiles 1) open file "scripts/profiles.lua" in a text editor 2) study the given example profiles 3) a profile consists of name and strings 4) an example: { name = "Middle-C", strings = { "C4" } } would create a new 1-string profile called "Middle-C". Note markings such as sharp "#" and flat "b" are supported. Note name must be in big case ("C"). After editing, you must restart the application to enable modifications. Background There are some older tuner programs for AmigaOS but they didn't fulfill my needs so I wrote my own. It was also nice to test Lua, the scripting language. Future Metronome features (and sound) are currently a bit lacking. Also the tuner lacks a free tuning option. I wish to improve them later, well, depends also on the feedback :) Bugs/Feedback jniemima()mail.student.oulu.fi -- Lua 5.0 license Copyright © 1994-2005 Lua.org, PUC-Rio.
