att.transposition

Attributes that describe transposition.
Module
MEI.shared
Attributes
@trans.diat, @trans.semi
@trans.diat(optional)Records the amount of diatonic pitch shift, e.g., C to C♯ = 0, C to D♭ = 1, necessary to calculate the sounded pitch from the written one. Value is an integer.
<att.transposition>direct children@trans.diat
@trans.semi(optional)Records the amount of pitch shift in semitones, e.g., C to C♯ = 1, C to D♭ = 1, necessary to calculate the sounded pitch from the written one. Value is an integer.
<att.transposition>direct children@trans.semi
@trans.diat(optional)Records the amount of diatonic pitch shift, e.g., C to C♯ = 0, C to D♭ = 1, necessary to calculate the sounded pitch from the written one. Value is an integer.
@trans.semi(optional)Records the amount of pitch shift in semitones, e.g., C to C♯ = 1, C to D♭ = 1, necessary to calculate the sounded pitch from the written one. Value is an integer.

Remarks

Diatonic transposition requires both @trans.diat and @trans.semi attributes in order to distinguish the difference, for example, between a transposition from C to C♯ and one from C to D♭.
