lp_chord_id: LilyPond chord notation

In leonawicz/tabr: Music Notation Syntax, Manipulation, Analysis and Transcription in R

LilyPond chord notation

Description

Obtain LilyPond quasi-chord notation.

Usage

lp_chord_id(root, chord, exact = FALSE, ...)

lp_chord_mod(root, chord, exact = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

root	character, root note.
chord	character, tabr format chord name.
exact	logical, return a more exact LilyPond chord representation.
...	additional arguments passed to transpose().

Details

These functions take a tabr syntax representation of a chord name and convert it to quasi-LilyPond syntax; "quasi" because the result still uses ⁠_⁠ for flats and ⁠#⁠ for sharps, whereas LilyPond itself uses es and is (mostly). This is the format used by tabr functions involved in communicating with LilyPond for music transcription, and they make these final conversions on the fly. This can be overridden with exact = TRUE.

Value

character

Examples

lp_chord_id("a a a", "m M m7_5")
lp_chord_mod("a a a", "m M m7_5")
lp_chord_id("a a a", "m M m7_5", exact = TRUE)
lp_chord_mod("a a a", "m M m7_5", exact = TRUE)
