Play music in the background.


This unit gives you music capabilities with a BASIC syntax. The music
will be played in the background, so your program can continue with
other things. The music can also be played in the foreground.

This unit is very easy to use. There are only three procedures and one
function interfaced outwards. All the rest is automatic (installing,
uninstalling, interpreting the music, etc.)!


PlayMusic(string);
          Start playing a string of music in the background. The string
          is a normal character string containing music 'commands' as
          described below. If there is already music playing, then it is
          first shut off. All settings are reset to their default.

PlayMusicForeground(string);
          Start playing a string of music, and wait for it to finish. If
          there is already music playing, then it is first shut off. All
          settings are reset to their default.
          This procedure simply calls the "PlayMusic" procedure, and then
          loops until MusicBusy (described later) is true.

MusicOff;
          Turn music off.

if MusicBusy then ...
          Return TRUE if there is currently music playing.

See at the end of this unit for a small demonstration program.





The music-commands syntax is (BASIC compatible):

[>,<]A..G[#,+,-](n)[.]
          Play note A..G in the current octave. There are 12 notes per
          octave: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B.
           If the note is prefixed by '>', then it is transposed one octave
            upwards.
           If the note is prefixed by '<', then it is transposed one octave
            downward.
           if the note is followed by '#' or '+', then the note is made
            "sharp" (one note up, 'D' becomes 'D#', 'E' becomes 'F').
           If the note is followed by '-', then the note is made "flat" (one
            note down, 'D' becomes 'C#').
           If the note is followed by a number, then the number specifies the
            length of this note, overriding the default notelength set by 'L'.
           Every period following the notenumber will increase the playtime
            by 3/2.
          Example:   >B+3.
                     >      : transposed
                      B     : note B
                       +    : sharp
                        3   : length 3
                         .  : 3/2 longer
N(n)[.]   Play note "n", in which "n" is a number 0..84. There are 7 octaves,
          12 notes per octave. Note 0 means: silence. The first note in the
          first octave is 'N1'.
           Every period following the notenumber will increase the playtime
            by 3/2.
O(n)      Sets the octave to "n", in which "n" is a number 0..7. Each octave
          goes from note 'C' to 'B'. Octave 3 starts with middle 'C'. Default
          octave is 4.
L(n)      Set the default length of following notes to "n", in which "n" is
          a number 1..64. L1 = whole notes, L2 = half notes, L4 = quarter
          notes, etc. Default length is 4. In one minute fit 120 quarter
          notes ('L4'), adjustable with the 'T' (tempo) command.
T(n)      Set the tempo to "n", in which "n" is a number 32..255. The tempo
          is the number of quarter notes ('L4') that are played per minute.
          The higher the tempo, the faster the music. Default tempo is 120.
MN        Music Normal. Every note plays seven-eights of the time set by
          'L', and is followed by a pause of one-eight. Thus, every note is
          followed by a small silence, making the music more natural.
ML        Music Legato. Every note plays the full time set by 'L'. Thus, every
          note is immediately followed by the next note, making the music a
          bit synthetic.
MS        Music Staccato. Every note plays three-quarters of the time
          set by 'L', and is followed by a pause of one-quarter. Thus, every
          note is followed by a clearly audible silence, making the music
          very rithmic.
P(n)[.]   Insert a pause with a length of "n", in which "n" is a number
          1..64.
           Every period following the number will increase the playtime
            by 3/2.

Not supported (ignored):
MF        Foreground: Cannot switch between foreground/background.
MB        Background: Cannot switch between foreground/background.
Xs$;      Include string: Cannot include substrings.
=n;       Use variable "n": Cannot replace variable's names by their contents.

Spaces are allowed between commands, but not inside commands.
Upper/lowercase is not important.




THEORY.

This unit installs itself in the timertick interrupt $1C (procedure
"MusicNext"). With every timertick a buffer is checked. If there is any
music to be played in the buffer, then a single note from the buffer is
played.




This unit was inspired by a (buggy and incomplete) public domain unit
written by Michael Quinlan, 9/17/85.

  (0..6). The first note of an octave is exactly 2 times as high as the first
  note in the first-lower octave. This means that the distance between two
  notes is exactly 12√2 = exp(ln(2)/12). Starting at a 'base' frequency for the
  highest note in the highest octave, we can calculate all the notes in all the
  octaves. The timer chip expects a reciprocal number (1193180 / frequency). }
