I have the piano roll bug again. I spent a while tonight sketching some things with the Helio piano roll editor. It’s really nice, very well done. I think I even like it more than the Reason piano roll, my old stomping grounds. Still, it makes a number of (very reasonable and fine) choices that keep me from trying to adopt it into my workflow, excited as I was to see this really nice standalone piano roll recently. It even has support for microtonal tuning, but I guess for me the problematic choices are how grids are approached, enforced and modulated.

For example, what if the pitch space of the piano roll had snap / free modes like the rhythm / tempo space does? The vertical axis would be log frequency with any arbitrary harmonic grid overlay of some scale in some tuning system… but it would be great be able to toggle snapping off and be able to draw freeform curves in frequency space, too.

From the perspective of the GUI, since I’m doing this in cairo and cairo supports svg-style drawing modes, it probably makes sense to try sampling as you draw and use those points for the svg bezier curve style where you can just keep stringing points together one after another without bothering to calculate the control points. Translating cairo curves into pippi control curves might be tricky? Whenever a curve goes through the designated render space of an event so to speak, it will need to be extracted as a vector to give the instrument script context so that the pitch curve can actually be followed.

In other words the normal piano roll drawing mode where notes are a click-drag-release to set the start and end points could have a complimentary mode which samples points in between for the curve, too.

Tempo grids should be a buffer at the top of the pianoroll that can be drawn into, too. Set descrete tempo points, or draw a curve between them.

I’d like to make snapping a property of the event/note, too. There would still be a snap mode and a free mode, but drawing some events in snap mode and then switching to free mode would preserve their snappiness. Visually, snapped notes should be called out differently than free notes. Maybe with something like a serif on the line. This way, tempo adjustments to a passage with a lot of snapped events will move the events along the snap grid if it changes. Selecting events should allow them to be toggled between snapped/quantized and free if needed, too.

If it was implemented in a way that let you convert free events into snapped events without moving them (maybe there are two actions: convert to snapped and move-quantize, or convert to snapped and preserve position) then I suppose you could lay out a number quantized snapped events and a number of unquantized free events, then convert the free events into snapped events without moving their positions, and finally adjust the underlying tempo grid to modulate it freely during those sections so that the free events also move proportionally with the tempo delta? That would be fun.
