Dear Elie,

thank you!

I think you can separate the project in two more or less independent

Surely I'll do it that way and I already started from here, encoding music.

Thank you very very much for this, Elie! :)

Thanks!
Let's start from the beginning then. I'll share on Gregobase everything
I'll type, maybe asking Olivier for adding some new source references... :)

Thank you!
