Friends, I have done music, a quite long piece, for a large chamber orchestra. For the most I have used the piano as the reference sound, and my goal was to create what would be a form of an acoustical "particello": all music ideas are there, but it is not yet orchestrated/notated. (example of written particello would be: http://www.omifacsimiles.com/brochures/images/debussy_pre.jpg The facts: 1. all recorded improvisations are totally free (free of tempo, measures, beats...) 2. the tempo in LPX is fixed at q=120 3. the time signature in LPX is fixed at 4/4 4. this whole pre-material I wish to print out prior orchestrating/notating 5. the final orchestration/notation process is done on paper with pencil Now, as it is the "rawest" material possible, I want to solve the problem of quantisation and beats, not necessarily solving it just in LPX. Perhaps I could print the cluttered score as it is and than manually go through the material. I am thinking if there is any approach to make this process easier. For instance, quick phrases or ornaments usually appear as a cluster when opened in Finale, or even in the LPX score editor. Somehow it is easier to understand the MIDI editor than notation. Some thoughts, but not tested: 1. print out the MIDI editor (piano roll) as it is; 2. Print out the LPX Score as it is; 3. doubling the length of the notes in order to get more clear notation output 4. Acoustically/audibly deciphering the tempo&beats, than using printed 1. and 2. with ruler translate it into notation (on paper w/pencil). 5. Working in LPX to fix tediously each tempo/beat/measure/time.signature change (=quantisation), to get more correct notation output. 6. ANY OTHER IDEAS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE, even the crazy one - please shoot! Many thanks.
