This is a simple Score Editor in pure VB. You can create and edit Leadsheets with melody, songtext and chord-symbols.
At this time it's possible to use:
-notes and rests with different values (whole, half, quarter, 8th and 16th)
-dotted notes and triplets
-ties
-flat, sharp and natural keys
-different time signatures (4/4, 3/4, 2/4)
-different key signatures (only sharp)
-beams for 8th and 16th notes
-bar lines and repeat signs
It's also possible to play the leadsheet with MIDI and export it as a Bitmap file for printing (you can choose, how many bars are printed in one line).
IMPORTANT: The control is still under development and there are certainly some bugs and the code is very untidy.
Still to do for example:
-MIDI Im- and Export.
-Page break for Bitmap-Export
-Print function
-Automation for beams
-legato signs, and different dynamics and articulation marks
-flat key signatures
-maybe polyphony?
You can use it for whatever you want, but if you made a bigger modification, please send me a copy of your code to [email protected].
Before using this code, you have to intall the true-type-font capella-invertiert.ttf on you PC. You can download it from: https://klausmeglitsch.heim.at/capella/userfiles/KlassischeFonts.zip.
Extract capella-ivertiert.ttf from the archive and put it in your font folder.
The MIDI-functions aren't from me but I cant't remember, where I've found them.
Sample-App and Comments are in German.
