Hi all,
3 new books are published:
Le-Puzzle-du-Batteur-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE-en-5-4 + MY-SONG file.
Le-Puzzle-du-Batteur-VIRTUAL-BLUES-BASE-en-5-4.
Le-Puzzle-du-Batteur-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE-en-7-4.

WHAT IS A VIRTUAL BOOK?
In this book all bars are formated in 5/4 but only completed with rests.
Therefore at the end of each bar there are two r8 (= a quarter note).
Don't forget that you must write sounds with eighth notes in the
"Gigsaw". If that's been established all combinations are possible:
Move and replace whatever place you want into the bar a single r8 (or
its subdivisions). (In the included MY-SONG see example
5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes8)
Paying more attention in case of triplets that's the reason why I
haven't changed 8th rests in the following examples:
- Either you move a WHOLE triplet on one another beat. (see example
5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 1)
- or you insert three 8th rests inside one another triplet and delete
the empty \\times { } so that you only get a triplet with six 8th
notes. (see example 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 2)
- or you only get a triplet with nine 8th notes. (see example
5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 3)
- or you only get a single triplet with twelve 8th notes. (see example
5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 4 et 5)
- or finally you change the time signature (5/4 becomes 15/8) and you
delete all \\times { }. Doing that you create materials for all kind of
transformations. (see example 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée en
15/8). To find the previous tempo of 8th in triplet again notice the
change of tempo 4 = 165 (110 + a half: 55)

I spend more time to explain than to do the things.
I hope my effort at doing a translation wasn't too unclear.
As always suggestions or criticisms are welcome.
Have fun.

Hi,
I am kind of intrigued by this drummers gigsaw... seems to be some
kind of drum beat library?
But after that I am totally at loss, can you or someone explain how
this can be used. Is it strictly for arranging with lilypond? Is it
for arranging?
Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert
Did you follow the tutorial that is in the archive? What step is it you
don't understand?
Here's a short review I wrote about Gigsaw:
The Gigsaw can be useful to replace a normal sequencer because it allows one
to work on a midi file using text only and thus the functions that are
available in a text editor, like e.g. the replace function. More logical
maybe.
Sometimes it's easier to use the names of rhythms instead of the notation or
midi pianoroll/matrix drum editor.
To use the Gigsaw, you need gvim (the vim-gnome package).
At least, to convert from Lilypond format to midi.
Arranging drums can also be done in a simple text editor using copy-paste.
Cheers
Peter

Thanks Peter to push me. It's easier like that.
Some precisions:
The Gigsaw can be used in two ways:
1. Without an install it's a Midi drum beat library you manipulate in a
sequencer. (Totally cross-platforms) For those who are allergic to
Lilypond. (Yes! there are.) Also because most of musicians are able to
work with Midi files.
2. After an install it's some kind of drumming by text. If you play the
rules of the game, mainly a bit of syntax, all is possible. You can
arrange your song first-rate with whatever you want, for instance
irrational tuplets or odd meters.
And you are not at the end of surprises about features but it's for the
next months. In fact I still don't understand very well these new
features myself.
I forgot to say that midi files are edited with a mapping of velocities.
If you don't understand something don't hesitate to ask.
Have fun and happy new year.
