abcCairo
Extend abcm2ps to support direct generation of PNG, SVG and PDF files
abcCairo is a project to create a Cairo backend for abcm2ps, enabling it to generate output in the formats supported by the Cairo library; PNG, SVG and PDF. abcm2ps is a command line program written by Jean-François Moine which converts abc music notation to music sheet in PostScript or SVG format. It is an extension of Michael Methfessel's abc2ps. This project takes out the PostScript commands to generate various musical symbols and instead replaces them with Cairo function calls that generate the same musical symbols. The Cairo graphics library is an open-source graphics library offering a similar 2D graphics model to PostScript. The Cairo library can write to a GTK canvas, allowing integration with programs using the GTK+ toolkit, or it can write to an image file in a choice of formats: PNG, SVG or PDF. This means that other programs can have access to the abcm2ps music-rendering capability without having to incorporate a PostScript interpreter. -

CLEF
CIRMMT Live Electronics Framework
CLEF is a Max-based modular environment for composition and performance of live electronics, developed at CIRMMT/McGill University. CLEF follows structural design concepts and allows users to rapidly create digital signal processing topologies and control data taking advantage of the provided infrastructure and feature set. CLEF separates domain model from data access layer and user interface, relying on dedicated technologies: OpenSoundControl for data access, Max dictionaries for module description and pattr for storage management. CLEF is implemented natively on top of Max and does not require external installers, libraries or compiled code. This makes CLEF portable, compatible, and straightforward to mix and merge with your favourite patches. CLEF projects can be built into collectives or applications for easy distribution. © 2009-2014 Marlon Schumacher. All Rights Reserved. -
