Marc, thanks for the reply. Now that you say it, I think I remember having read about this equivalence acoustic bass <=> contrabass in another thread either here on the ML or in the fora.
Just to avoid future repetitions of the question, I think I will change the acoustic bass entry in this way: <Instrument id="acoustic-bass"> <init>contrabass</init> <longName>Acoustic Bass</longName> <shortName>Bass</shortName> <description>Acoustic Bass</description> <musicXMLid>pluck.bass.acoustic</musicXMLid> <Channel> <program value="32"/> </Channel> </Instrument> This should make clear to anybody else perusing the file that the entry refers to a contrabass, while keeping the specific names and plucked style (I'll check the <init> tag supports all the required tags, though). I think with the details you provided, this part of instruments.xml can be reasonably considered done. [Side note: The entry for contrabass is also not entirely clear: 1) it is duplicated into a "contrabass" and a "double-bass" entry, with the same data except for the names; probably an <init> would be useful here too. 2) Pitch ranges for both oscillate between a low E tuning and a (5-string?) low B tuning.] Thanks, Maurizio -- View this message in context: http://dev-list.musescore.org/Bass-guitars-in-instruments-xml-tp7578800p7578808.html Sent from the MuseScore Developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
