Music Parts

Each Music Unit contains one or more Music Parts. Yu can use Music Parts to reuse, repeat and play each Music Part in a differente way:
  1. In a different tempo, slower or faster.
  2. On a differen height, tranposing the Music Part durecing playing.
  3. Use a differen Music Player.
You can combine Music Parts making a tree.
There are three kinds of Music Parts:
  1. Single Music Part, containing Music Elements.
  2. Repeat Music Part, repeating the Music in the subtree of the Repeat Music Part x times.
  3. Turns Music Part, plays the subtree of the turns Music Parts using an condition, and possible transponate or change tempo when playing the subtree.
A Turns Music Parts contains one or more Turns. Usually a Turns Music Parts is a part of a subtree of a Repeat Music Part. The Repeat Music Part has a counter, when the Turns Music Part plays, it uses that counter and search for a Turn with the same counter. Only if the Turn is found, the subtree is played. When the Pitch of the Turn is unequal of 0, the whole subtree is also transponated when playing this turn, the tempo can also be changed. If the Turns Music Parts is not used in a subtree of a Repeat Music Part, only the Turn of the Count of 1 is searched for.
You can define the relative tempo of the begin and end of every Music Part.

In the example above, there are:

The Single Music Part "begin" is played only once and is played first.
The subtree of "stanza" is played 3 times, the third time at a higher pitch.
Note that the Single Music Part "special" is played 12 times in total, also "normal" is played 12 times, "refrain" is played 3 times.

You can temporaly exclude one or more Music Parts (and the subtree) for playing and drawing in the Music Window.
In the dialogbox you can select an Music Part and Play this pressing the Play Button in the dialogbox.
You can see the result by selecting tab "Music Result":

You can see when which Music Parts is played. Music Part "special 2" is selected. This Music Part is drawed two times, and no Turn is drawed. In the fields you can see when this Music Part is played, for how long, on what tempo and pitch.
