Free musical scores software for linux

Music::Scales can supply necessary notes / offsets for musical scales.

SYNOPSIS

use Music::Scales;

my @maj = get_scale_notes(Eb); # defaults to major
print join(" ",@maj); # "Eb F G Ab Bb C D"
my @blues = get_scale_nums(bl); # bl,blu,blue,blues
print join(" ",@blues); # "0 3 5 6 7 10"
my %min = get_scale_offsets (G,mm,1); # descending melodic minor
print map {"$_=$min{$_} "} sort keys %min; # "A=0 B=-1 C=0 D=0 E=-1 F=0 G=0"

Given a keynote A-G(#/b) and a scale-name, will return the scale, either as an array of notenames or as a hash of semitone-offsets for each note.

METHODS

get_scale_nums($scale[,$descending])

returns an array of semitone offsets for the requested scale, ascending/descending the given scale for one octave. The descending flag determines the direction of the scale, and also affects those scales (such as melodic minor) where the notes vary depending upon the direction. Scaletypes and valid values for $scale are listed below.

get_scale_notes($notename[,$scale,$descending,$keypref])

returns an array of notenames, starting from the given keynote. Enharmonic equivalencies (whether to use F# or Gb, for instance) are calculated based on the keynote and the scale. Basically, it attempts to do the Right Thing if the scale is an 8-note one, (the 7th in G harmonic minor being F# rather than Gb, although G minor is a flat key), but for any other scales, (Chromatic, blues etc.) it picks equivalencies based upon the keynote. This can be overidden with $keypref, setting to be either # or b for sharps and flats respectively. Cruftiness abounds here.

get_scale_offsets($notename[,$scale,$descending,$keypref])

as get_scale_notes(), except it returns a hash of notenames with the values being a semitone offset (-1, 0 or 1) as shown in the synopsis.

get_scale_MIDI($notename,$octave[,$scale,$descending])

as get_scale_notes(), but returns an array of MIDI note-numbers, given an octave number (-1..9).

get_scale_PDL($notename,$octave[,$scale,$descending])

as get_scale_MIDI(), but returns an array of PDL-format notes.

is_scale($scalename)

returns true if $scalename is a valid scale name used in this module.

jMusic is a project designed to provide composers and software developers with a library of compositional and audio processing tools.

It provides a solid framework for computer-assisted composition in Java, and is also used for generative music, instrument building, interactive performance, and music analysis.

jMusic supports musicians with its familiar music data structure based upon note/sound events, and provides methods for organising, manipulating and analysing that musical data. jMusic scores can be rendered as MIDI or audio files for storage and later processing or playback in real-time.

jMusic can read and write MIDI files, audio files, XML files, and its own .jm files; there is real-time support for JavaSound, QuickTime and MIDIShare. jMusic is designed to be extendible, encouraging you to build upon its functionality by programming in Java to create your own musical compositions, tools, and instruments.

In a spirit of mutual collaboration, jMusic is provided free and is an open source project. jMusic is 100% Java and works on Windows, Mac OS, Linux, BSD, Solaris, or any other platform with Java support.

Games::Score is a Perl module to keep track of score in games .

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Score;

# these three values are the default ones, by the way
Games::Score->default_score(0);
Games::Score->default_step(1);
Games::Score->step_method(inc);

# start two players
my $player1 = Games::Score->new();
my $player2 = Games::Score->new();

# set a winning condition
Games::Score->victory_is( sub { $_[0] >= 20 } );

# and something to do if it is achieved
Games::Score->on_victory_do( sub { print "Won!" } );

# give points to the players
$player1->add(2);
$player2->step();

# look at section FUNCTIONS for more functionalities, such as
Games::Score->invalidate_if( sub { $_[0] > 20 } );

Games::Score can be use to keep track of several players points in a game, regardless of the starting amount of points, winning and/or losing conditions, etc.
It provides several useful methods so that the user doesnt have to keep testing values to see if theyre valid or if the player condition has changed.

qscore project can parse Quake3:Arena (and compatible) server.log into high scores and statistics.
Options:
--version output version information and exit
--help display this help and exit
Strip & Sort:
--sort=HOW sort player results
HOW=0 do not sort (default)
HOW=1 sort by frags
HOW=2 sort by rounds
HOW=3 sort by average
-r sort reverse
Output:
-o=FILE output into FILE (default: stdout)
--txt output as plain text (default)
--ansi output as text with ANSI colors
--html output as html
--csv output as comma-separated values CSV
Enhancements:
- The whole code was optimized a bit.
- Total game time statistics were added.
- A remote console for Quake3:Arena (and compatible) server administration was added.

SlimScrobbler project will submit music files that you listen to on your Squeezebox to Last.FM, where it will show up on your recently-played list and count towards your listening statistics.
If you want to listen to Last.FM internet radio through your Squeezebox, then you also need James Craigs Last.FM plugin - and very good it is too.
Once upon a time there were two websites, one called Audioscrobbler, and one called Last.FM. Audioscrobbler tracked what you listened to on your PC; Last.FM provided personalised streaming radio.
In 2005 they merged completely and dropped the "Audioscrobbler" name. Thats why all the plugins for Last.FM tend to be called Scrobblers.
Enhancements:
- Changed tag submission format again!

Celebrity Search allows you to search movie starts - actors, actresses and directors, musical performers and so on.

Highlight a name of a celebrity on a web page, right click it with the mouse, and choose Search Celebrity menu item to see the info about the celebrity in a separate tab.

You can search movie starts - actors, actresses and directors, musical performers, supermodels, politicians, prominent businessmen, other publicly known people. Nice research tool.

Score Rated is a rated scoring script which uses the rating as a factor in the scoring process. Higher ratings leds to higher score. The rating is factored in each play.

I make no promises but the script hasnt messed up my system yet.

Usage:

You must use ratings for this script to have any point. Run the script, and it will be used to calculate scores for your tracks from then on. The script can be tweek by editing the file.

Known flaws:

Script reads rating when the song starts playing. Changes made after that is not considered. To make sure a new rating is used you could stop and restart the script or pause and play the song.

I will be looking in this for a future version. Suggestions are welcome.
