Thanks Pedro, that's quite useful. I'm using the playnote function from your script. I see you make a translation of note names to other ascii chars using tr (before you call playnote), and it's this latter "scale" string I'm interested in, as my script does not need to deal with note names at this stage. I've used an expansion of the string "<>@ACEGHJLMOQS" to "<>@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" which does give me a wider range of notes, but is very middly, there's no bass notes nor anything from the high octaves. How might I get the bass and high end? Thanks, James. >Regards, >Pedro > > _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
