Canorus development team is happy to announce the new release of Canorus - a free cross-platform music score editor, version 0.5. The new version brings lots of new features and import/export improvements. Upgrade is recommended for all the users.
You can download it here: http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6144 *Note for Windows users*: Please use .xml file format for storing your scores. There is a known issue opening the new .can files under Microsoft Windows. Changelog: - Implemented infrastructure for getting MIDI-IN events. - Lots of internal API changes: - Generalized Import and Export classes. New fileformats can now be implemented simply by inheriting those classes. - Import and Export are now done in their own threads. - Rewritten Voice class for insertion, deletion and manipulation for music elements. The score should now always stay consistent when removing a shared element from a single voice. - Scripting engine now uses internal CA-class name names instead of class names only. This solves the naming clashing problem in various scripting languages that don't use namespaces (eg. PHP) and enum<->class names clashes. - Added marks: - Arbitrary text - BookMark - Tempo (bpm) - Ritardando, Accellerando - Fermata (normal, short, long, very long) - Dynamic (f, mf, p, sfz, etc.) - Crescendo, Decrescendo - Pedal (sustain) - Instrument change (effects midi as well) - Rehersal marks (A, B, C, D etc. on barlines) - Repeat marks (coda, varcoda, segno, volta) - Fingering (finger numbers, strings thumb, organ's left/right heel/toe) - Added articulation marks: - Accent, Marcato, Staccatissimo, Espressivo, Staccato, Tenuto, Portato - Up bow, Down bow, Flageolet, Open, Stopped - Turn, ReverseTurn, Trill, Prall, Mordent, PrallPrall, PrallMordent, UpPrall, DownPrall, UpMordent, DownMordent, PrallDown, PrallUp, LinePrall - Implemented export to Midi. - New file format CAN - compressed CanorusML format with resources. This is now the default file format for Canorus. ISSUE: Please use CanorusML file format when using the document on cross platforms. - Using new RtMidi-1.0.7 library. - New translations (Canorus speaks 12 languages): - Danish - Norwegian-NB - Traditional Chinese - German - Hungarian - French - Lots of other cleanups and bugfixes.
