Midi::EMusicTimeStringFormat

Navigation

API > API/Plugins > API/Plugins/HarmonixMidi

Composers, Musicians, Sound Designers, etc. (and their software tools) speak about musical time in terms of positions and durations.

Positions are specified as 1 based numbers for bars and beats. Bar 1, beat 1.0 is the first moment in a song.

Durations are 0 based. A musical note might be 0 Bars and 0.33 beats long (a eighth note triplet if beats are quarter notes).

When we are parsing a string that specifies a musical time, or converting a midi tick to musical time string we want to maintain this convention. So the parse and format functions below need to know whether they are working on a position or a duration.

Syntax

namespace Midi  
{  
    enum EMusicTimeStringFormat  
    {  
        Position,  
        Duration,  
    }  
}
