Go ahead and ask questions here about the final project (on the Assignments page):
How do you change the resolution in a WaveEditor? I'd like to see a whole sample in one length of the Graph window. Or, at least get it down to 2-3 lengths. This would make it a lot easier to trim parts of the sample out. Right now I have to scroll all over the place and I lose track of where I am in the sample. Many thanks... Jay
Hey, I wrote my composition in Finale Notepad and have created my instruments in Squeak as MIDI instruments. Now, I need to put them together. I can't figure out how to convert my .MUS file to a MIDI file without buying the full version of Finale. If I send the file to you (Mark or Jim), can you convert it for me or let me know if there are any machines that I have access to that have Finale installed? If not, any advice other than typing in all the notes by hand? Thanks in advance! - Jonathan LaCour
What's the best way to make an mp3 from Squeak? - Jay
Where do we post our projects? - Jay
The best way to make an MP3 as far as I can tell is to use the storeWAVOnFileNamed: method to create a WAV file, and then use some MP3 encoding software (which you can find on the Web) to change it into an MP3. – Ben
I'm so sorry that we haven't been getting to these!
Some Answers:
I have no idea how to change resolution in the WaveEditor. Lushi?
I don't have anything to convert .MUS to MIDI. Notepad can't export MIDI? You could try LIME – I find it similar to Notepad, but more functionality (but less slick).
From Squeak, output the AIFF or WAV, then convert to MP3 with your tool of choice. (I use Amadeus for the Mac.)
