Notes Pattern

The core of Melodyspawner is text to MIDI. Under the hood it uses Scribbletune and loosely adopts that pattern language. Two text fields drive what gets rendered: Notes for pitch, and Rhythm Pattern for timing. This page covers Notes.

Notes text fieldCopy Anchor Link

The Notes field accepts a note pattern to render. Notes are separated by spaces. Accepted symbols:

• Note names such as C1, Db4, or F#2
• Whole numbers as degrees of the selected scale. For example, 0 in C1 major is C1, 4 is G1, and -2 is A0
• R picks a random note of the selected scale. Randomness is shaped by the scale and randomization controls

A pattern like R R R R asks Melodyspawner to invent a four-note melody in the current scale. Mixing fixed notes with R is useful when you want some pitches locked and others free.
