Are there any plans to support rhythms that don't fit nicely into 16th-note patterns?
Right now I see that the audio engine is calculating the length of a sample by calculating the length of a 16th-note for the current tempo.
My thought was that (and I am willing to work on this & provide a patch) it could instead calculate the length for a quarter note, and then calculate the length of each sample depending on how the quarter note has been subdivided.
For example, we could accept syntax like this:
Which would correspond to:
16 rest rest rest 16th rest rest rest 1/4-triplet 1/4-triplet 1/4-triplet 16th rest 16th rest
If a quarter note section is wrapped in (), we calculate the length of each sample based on how many notes are within the parens.
From here, we could further subdivide the 1/4-note by nesting parens. Each nested paren would represent half of it's enclosing rhythm. So:
would indicate 1/8-note triplets.
Just some ideas I've been kicking around.
