Re: EOF 1.8b35 - Now with tempo map storage/export

I found a bug in EOF 1.8b35. In Pro Guitar, when a slide marker is on a muted note (channel 3, when numbering 0-15), the hand position indicator (note on MIDI pitch 108) has 128 added to whatever it normally would be, resulting in an invalid MIDI velocity.

http://www.mediafire.com/?4x29yx3rv4b90g6

This zip file contains "input.mid", a MIDI file I created, and "notes.mid", the output of EOF after importing "input.mid". "input.mid" contains a PART REAL_GUITAR track with three notes: a gem on the low E string (fret 5, muted), a gem on the low E string (fret 10, normal) a quarter-note after the first note, and a slide marker (simultaneous with the fret 5 note). "notes.mid" has those same notes, plus two hand position indicators. The first one has velocity 233 (which is 105 + 128), and the second one has velocity 110. MIDI velocities are only supposed to be in the range 0 to 127, so certain programs crash when even attempting to read "notes.mid".

Thanks, that issue is now fixed.

With that in mind, it's time for another beta release. Changes since 1.8b35:
*Fixed a bug where the 6th lane was dropped from pro guitar BRE notes during MIDI import.
*Implemented new keyboard shortcuts for altering tempos, based on the Feedback chart editor. +/- Increases/decreases the tempo of the anchor at/before current seek position by 1BPM (or .1BPM if SHIFT is held, or .01BPM if CTRL+SHIFT is held). The shorcuts for increment/decrement AV delay have been changed to use CTRL++ and CTRL+- on the numpad.
*Updated FoFLC to version 2.38, which adds support for JamBand lyric import.
*Implemented a Feedback input method. Left/Right seeks by the current grid snap, Pg Up/Dn seeks one measure back/forward, keys 1 through 6 place/toggle gems at the current seek position (not the mouse position). In this input method, the +/- tempo controls alter the tempo of the beat (instead of the anchor) at/before the seek position. Other Feedback controls will be added in the future.
*Fixed a bug where if a chart had too many of certain phrases, EOF could crash.
*Increased the length a drum note has to be to be considered a drum roll during GH import.
*Added logic to work around a bug in some NOTE format GH charts where the text for a lyic is defined out of alignment with its pitch. The text will be assigned to the closest pitch.
*Fixed a buffer overflow that could occur when loading lyrics during QB GH import, which could prevent some songs from loading.
*Improved the note cleanup logic to be more thorough about checking for note overlapping, especially for "crazy" notes.
*Altered the use of the delta timing rounding to the nearest beat that was introduced in 1.8b33 to not apply to anything except note/phrase start positions, as it was causing problems with some things such as HOPO phrases overlapping.
*Added more logic to prevent overlapping MIDI notes/phrases during save. This was generally a problem with crazy notes that overlap in addition to using certain statuses like HOPO on/off.
*Added a check during save so that if an [end] event is placed on a note's tail (causing an error), it will alert the user and offer to seek to the beat containing the offending event.
*Updated the render logic so that the [end] event is displayed above the beat marker that contains it.
*Fixed some memory leaks.
*Added logic during GH import so that if the pitch for a lyric isn't found, it is added as a pitchless (ie. freestyle) lyric.
*Fixed an issue with QB GH import that could cause the lyrics to not load for some songs.
*Fixed a bug where an invalid MIDI note velocity could be written for muted notes.

Cool B)
Can i ask to add fast note placement to lower difficulties? Its can save a fretter time and non-pro gamers will say "thanks" i think.

Wasn't there a program on ScoreHero like that... I remember trying it and it being pretty bad. (Not to knock the coder.)

Yeah, It was an ACE (http://www.mediafire.com/?jrv26z61nri4ryl).
I think program can make human work, just rules(algorithms) needed.
With the current state of technology progress to teach the program to do such trivial actions are not the problem, in fact, you can teach the program to arrange notes by itself (texts recognizes somehow). + manual editing has not been canceled ...

I thought that a man like raynebc would make it better than anyone else .. make such wonderful editor... and support its development within ~ 4 years. Bravo.

Charting requires making many judgment calls, something a computer can't do. This topic has been discussed before. Maybe, if someone charted pro guitar, there could be an algorithm to downchart that to 3/4/5 lanes. With pro guitar you have all the note information available to work with and can probably make a decent algorithm to do the job. With 5 lanes only, there's not enough information to work with. Even if you had pro guitar, there's still the issue of the computer not knowing what will make a chart fun to play.

A good idea could be to start from "REAL midi" (Not Fofix/GH/RB 5 lines ones)

Guitar Pro can already convert Tabs to REAL midi.
so we "just" need REAL midi to "Fofix" .mid

expert 5 lanes chart is for me not a note difference but more a tone difference from "green=loud to orange=high"

From REAL midi to "Fofix" .mid:

If you can do the automatic process wich compress all the midi keys to the fofix ones the most helpfull part would be done.

If it's not what you are looking for (starting from the .ogg)
I've saw,The waveform graph (so the audio signal) is very easier to decrypt if you post apply High pass filter with Audacity first (with live songs).
Using post audio filters may help the engine to decrypt songs.

...a feature to choose minimum tail length


I've just added this feature as a user preference that will allow you to apply a minimum length (in milliseconds) to all 5 lane guitar gems. If a gem can't be lengthened to your defined minimum length (ie. it's too close to another gem), EOF will point it out during save and offer to seek to the first note that has this problem.
