accid, colored, dur, oct, pname

accid(optional)Captures a written accidental. Value conforms to data.ACCIDENTAL.WRITTEN.

colored(optional)Indicates this feature is 'colored'; that is, it is a participant in a change in rhythmic values. In mensural notation, coloration is indicated by colored notes (red, black, etc.) where void notes would otherwise occur. In CMN, coloration is indicated by an inverse color; that is, the note head is void when it would otherwise be filled and vice versa. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.

dur(optional)Records the duration of a feature using the relative durational values provided by the data.DURATION datatype. Value conforms to data.DURATION.

oct(optional)Captures written octave information. Value conforms to data.OCTAVE.

pname(optional)Contains a written pitch name. Value conforms to data.PITCHNAME.

att.accidental(MEI.shared) Attributes for capturing momentary pitch inflection.

accid(optional)Captures a written accidental. Value conforms to data.ACCIDENTAL.WRITTEN.

att.coloration(MEI.shared) Indication of coloration.

colored(optional)Indicates this feature is 'colored'; that is, it is a participant in a change in rhythmic values. In mensural notation, coloration is indicated by colored notes (red, black, etc.) where void notes would otherwise occur. In CMN, coloration is indicated by an inverse color; that is, the note head is void when it would otherwise be filled and vice versa. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.

att.duration.log(MEI.shared) Attributes that express duration in musical terms.

dur(optional)Records the duration of a feature using the relative durational values provided by the data.DURATION datatype. Value conforms to data.DURATION.

att.pitched(MEI.shared) Attributes that record written pitch name and octave number.

att.pitch(MEI.shared) Attributes that record written pitch name.

pname(optional)Contains a written pitch name. Value conforms to data.PITCHNAME.

att.octave(MEI.shared) Attributes that record written octave.

oct(optional)Captures written octave information. Value conforms to data.OCTAVE.

MEI.sharedComponent declarations that are shared between two or more modules.

accid(optional)Captures a written accidental. Value conforms to data.ACCIDENTAL.WRITTEN.

colored(optional)Indicates this feature is 'colored'; that is, it is a participant in a change in rhythmic values. In mensural notation, coloration is indicated by colored notes (red, black, etc.) where void notes would otherwise occur. In CMN, coloration is indicated by an inverse color; that is, the note head is void when it would otherwise be filled and vice versa. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.

dur(optional)Records the duration of a feature using the relative durational values provided by the data.DURATION datatype. Value conforms to data.DURATION.

oct(optional)Captures written octave information. Value conforms to data.OCTAVE.

pname(optional)Contains a written pitch name. Value conforms to data.PITCHNAME.
