New tool (3.4): Interval / Consonance value calculator

Hello, anyone interested in trying an early version of a tool for calculating intervals and consonance values? I use it for learning purposes together with PianoTeq. Pls. refer to the description on GitHub: GitHub - ank19/renoise-interval: renoise(tm) tool to analyze intervals
Thanks.

Iā€™d love to try it out, but have no idea how to get the tool out of github, lol. Any chance you can wrap it as an xrnx?

Sure, sorry, sometimes I miss the obviousā€¦

Nice,
a tool that nicely breaks down the song was missing here.
Just one thing, would it be possible to make the interface a little smaller or adjustable?
In a broader analysis, the gui is quite large at my 2560x1440.

Thanks - Youā€™re right. I already spent hours to find a way to make it smaller, but unfortunately couldnā€™t come with an effective solution. However, I added some minor tweaks: Release 0.02 Ā· ank19/renoise-interval Ā· GitHub
When I get a chance, Iā€™ll ask in the Scripting FAQ whether the inner padding of the buttons can be adjustedā€¦

I wish I had the patented ā€œAā€ 440Hz.

i donā€™t understand how iā€™m supposed to use this.

Youā€™re right, Esa, the error message is misleading. Essentially the tool starts working when you have at least two notes in one track. It does not calculate anything if you only have one note in several tracks. In other words, I was focused on the vertical, not the horizontal. Although itā€™s an probably an edge case, I admit that it is counter-intuitive from a usability point of view. Iā€™ll put that onto my list.
An additional note: The recent version of the tool contains a more precise error message as well as two different views:

  • The condensed view: Prioritizes the display of as many intervals as possible. This means, for example, if a single track contains two note columns and the first note column contains a note in each line, but the second contains only one note in line 1 and line 16, then some notes in the first note column are omitted so that the interval in the second note column can also be displayed. I mention this, because a search depth of 20 lines is configured in the standard configuration for searching intervals (setting ā€˜Rangeā€™). So per default the tool does not find notes which are far away from each other.
  • The compact view: Simply lists every note in the configured range/ tracks, whether or not there are notes and does not omit anything. The drawback here is that only numbers without explanations are displayed, to efficiently use the screen space.
    Let me know if you come across further issues or proposalsā€¦
