We have so far only had one comment on pull request #158<\/a>, concerning a request to be more precise about the effect the octave-shift<\/strong> element has on both written and sounding pitch. It can be argued that the direction of the octave-shift<\/strong> could go either way, and so the co-chairs have decided to go with the same direction used in MusicXML. We think it might be worth having a separate discussion of the direction of the octave-shift<\/strong> in the spec. We will remove the description “true pitch value” to avoid any ambiguity about the effect on the written and sounding pitch. We are not going to revisit the more general definition of pitch for MNX-Common in connection with this pull request, though we do not rule it out for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adrian will make a few last changes to the pull request, and Michael and Daniel will review before the pull request is merged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adrian is still working on more definitions for spanning directions for inclusion in the MNX-Common specification and the MNX-Common by Example<\/a> page, which he hopes to have working soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Michael has added issue #293<\/a> to cover the requirement of describing changes in sound for virtual instruments. There are currently 28 issues in the MusicXML 3.2 milestone<\/a> for consideration, and sorted into general categories of issues to work on next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Daniel has not been able to devote any time to SMuFL 1.4 recently in the run-up to his recent product release but still anticipates being able to complete the work required for SMuFL 1.4 before the end of the calendar year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next meeting of the co-chairs is scheduled for September 24, 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Octave shifts in MNX-Common We have so far only had one comment on pull request #158, concerning a request to be more precise about the effect the octave-shift element has on both written and sounding pitch.
