Features
Kinetic analyzes a guitar score and performs computations so as to annotate it. The application supports:
- outputting either a tablature or an annotated MusicXML file;
- searching and selecting the “best” positions on the fretboard where to play the notes;
- barrés (full and partial);
- defining a right margin (for wrapping lines) for tablatures;
- proportionally spacing the notes in a measure with respect to their respective durations;
- defining the unit width of the proportional spacing;
- automatically switching between fixed spacing and proportional spacing;
- all types of barlines (normal bars, double bars and repeat bars);
- extra-metric groupings (duplets, triplets, quaruplets, etc.) that are simple, meaning that do not contain silences;
- single-dot and double-dot notes;
- repeats (Coda, Da capo, Dal segno, etc.);
- dynamics (piano, pianissimo, forte…);
- assigning a predefined letter to each note duration (from longas to hundred twenty-eighth notes);
- standard accidentals (sharps, flats, double sharps, double flats and naturals);
- numbering all or part of the measures;
- automatically including lines (measure numbers, note durations, repeats, etc.) in the tablature.
The following features are available in licensed and commercial versions of Kinetic:
- support of compressed MusicXML (ZIP format);
- full right hand fingering for fingerpicking/classical styles of playing;
- full left hand fingering;
- output to a MusicXML file;
- alternate tunings;
- full and partial capos, including open-in-the-middle, uncommon and custom configurations;
- 4-string to 7-string instruments;
- support of scores with multiple parts, with
- optional selection of parts to process;
- output to either separate MusicXML files or to a single MusicXML file;
- optional compression of output files into a ZIP format archive file.
