Version 0.6.1

0.6.1 - 2020-12-31

Fixes some pending issues from the Python 3 migration, plus some other outstanding issues.

PyPI release

Changed

• Eliminate redundancy between Note 'dynamics' and 'channel & velocity'. dynamics is now read-only. velocity and channel can be set directly in the constructor.
• Safer MIDI event serialization with int bound checks
• Reorganize test suites and doctests

Fixed

• Documentation improvements (several commits)
• (#58) Binary file open mode for MIDI and WAVE files
• (#60) Wrong message sent in 'stop note container' event
• (#64) MIDI input in Python 3, thanks to Sam Gould
• (4d82cbd) Standard pitch not honored in Note.to_hertz()

Version 0.6.0

0.6.0 - 2020-01-04

This is the first official release to support Python 3 (≥ 3.5). I've tried not to break Python 2 compatibility, but I'm officially not supporting Python 2.7 any further, especially since its end-of-life has come.

Some other changes — both old, that had been merged but not released, and new — are also part of this release:

Added

• (#12) Add channel and velocity properties and setters to Note
• (#18) Update LilyPond.from_Bar to handle minor, flat and sharp keys
• Better documentation for developers and standardization of the development environment

Changed

• (#42) Fix: 3/x (3/8, 3/16, etc.) are not compound meters

Fixed

• (#11) Documentation fixes
• (#14) Fix LilyPond filename extension detection
