We (mostly @MohitGupta14) made a lot of progress this summer, largely on "behind the scenes" issues that make a big difference in performance. Most notably, the interface for touch devices is much improved and many issues around screen size (and resizing) have been addressed.

Screenshot from 2023-09-11 19-00-51
There is now a Record Button on the the main toolbar (just to the right of the Stop Button). When the button is pressed, its center will turn red and video recording of your project will begin. Clicking on the button a second time will stop the recording and you will be prompted to save the recording to the file system. Note that recording is not available on some browsers, e.g., Firefox.

There is also a Full Screen Button on the main toolbar (just to the left of the New Project Button). Pressing this button will cause Music Blocks to enter full-screen mode. Use the ESC key to exit full-screen mode.

The One-of-this-or-that Block on the Numbers Palette now has numeric defaults (0 or 1). There is a new macro block available on the Pitch Palette that lets you use pitch defaults (do or sol).

Many thanks to all of the contributors and testers. And thank you to Google for allowing us to participate in GSoC 2023.

PreGSoC 2021 Release

The plan is to have this be the last release of v3 of Music Blocks. All of our efforts beginning with GSoC 2021 will be put towards Music Blocks v4, which will be a major refactoring of all aspects of the code. We will continue to accept bug fixes to the v3 branch, but no more new features will be added. New contributors should please focus on the 4.0 efforts, which can be followed here: https://github.com/sugarlabs/musicblocks-v4-lib and https://github.com/sugarlabs/musicblocks-v4

Regarding this release, it has largely been dedicated to bug fixing and general tidying up of the code, but there are a few new features worth mentioning. Liam Norman has added support for end-user samples (you are no longer restricted to the samples provided by Music Blocks.)

sampler

There were major improvements to many of the widgets. The plugin mechanism has been overhauled. And developers may appreciated that the code is now free of eslint errors.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the code and the testing, including Will and Henry Rico.

Dictionaries

We have accumulated enough small bug fixes to merit a new release. The most significant change is the introduction of a Dictionary object (thx to Christopher Liu for the inspiration). One fun thing you can do with the dictionary code is to query (and update) the individual mouse dictionaries -- a simpler and more general way to do "ensemble" communication.

To simplify using Music Blocks for presentations, an Erase Media block was added. This makes it easier to do transitions in slide shows, etc.

Other changes/updates:

  • Improvements to the Guide
  • Show project title when you load from the planet (thx ricknjacky)
  • Updated the Japanese translations (thx pikarusa)
  • A regression was fixed in the Camera block. (thx ricknjacky)
  • Fixed error with erase on pitch staircase eliminates starting pitch
  • Fixed regression in "On Every Note Do"
  • Fixed rotating a tablet causes work to be lost Issue-Bug (thx favor)
  • Fixed Hertz block pitches exported from Phrase Maker
  • Fixed Music Keyboard misplacing octave of sharp keys
  • Update background when updating background color
  • Fixed when running from an event, don't flush the event queue
  • Fixed don't display grid name when showing grid
  • Fixed semi-tone interval measure
  • Fixed scalar interval measure
  • Fixed scrolling issue with keyboard widget (thx ricknjacky)
  • Added drums to keyboard; fixed add menu
  • Fixed issue with grid display of notes w/o blocks in Phrase Maker
  • Added Solfege class; cleaned up pitch to color; pitch to octave; et al.
  • Added help for beat factor block
  • Calculate beat factor based on current note value -- See #2371
  • Enabled stand-alone scalar step
  • Always sort to remove repeated blocks in widget
  • Check for planet when running offline

GSoC 2020

Thanks to the efforts of Anindya Kundu (@meganindya) Aviral Gangwar (@aviral243), and Saksham Mrig (@sksum), we have made tremendous progress on Music Blocks this summer. (Tip-of-the-hat to the GSoC mentors as well: Favor, Sumit, and Devin.)

Anindya added a JavaScript widget that converts blocks to JavaScript. You can learn more here

JavaScript Widget

Saksham added an oscilloscope widget that displays the wave form of the music as it is playing.

Oscilloscope Widget

Also, the Music Keyboard widget now considers beats per minute (BPM) and Tempo when generating notes . The widget also accepts Midi as an input source.

Saksham refactored the Stats widget:

stats

And he made numerous improvements to the palette, block search, and the on-every-beat-do logic. He also added a block that lets you pan audio from left to right. And he upgraded to the latest version of Tone.js.

Aviral added a pie menu for setting a preferred mode and scale that makes it easier to preview and select notes.

Mode Selector

and a converter block for pitch.

Pitch Converter

Other highlights:

We had a new contributor (@athenajq) who added a pie menu to the BPM block.

Christopher Liu and Martin Abente Lahaye packaged Music Blocks with Flatpak.

Post-GCI Release

This release reflects the contributions made during Google Code-in 2019-2020. It is being designated as a major release since there are numerous changes to the user experience (e.g., Widget UX) and many underlying structural changes (e.g., the new Block API and storage mechanism) that impact developers. An overhaul of the graphics update mechanism has lead to a major reduction in CPU usage. As far as I know, there is only one "incompatibility" with previous versions; it is in regard to synchronization: there are some projects that worked previously that may now require the use of either the Sync block or the No-clock block. (Details are outlined below.)

A tip of the hat to some of the GCI participants who worked so hard to make this release possible: Bottersnike, AndreaGon, Pidddgy and Nepaltechguy2. They not only contributed code, but also insights into the design and implementation. Also, thanks to the community members who provided them with code reviews and feedback (notably @eohomegrownapps, @fakela, and @pikurasa). It is also important to acknowledge some of our users, Teddy Dildine and Henry Rico, who have been inspiring much of the recent developments and bug fixes. Look for some of their work on the Planet. Karin Kinoshita at Gakken has also done testing and translation work.

The biggest change in terms of look and feel in this release is in regards to the widgets. Bottersnike, in working on #1544 came up with a new layout mechanism that is much more robust, yet also more flexible and responsive than the original design. Widgets are put into windows and the layout is responsive to screen size. AndreaGon enhanced the widgets further by ensuring that any changes to the blocks inside a widget clamp made while the widget was open would result in the widget itself being updated.

The new widget design

The widget adapts to small screens.

Screenshot from 2020-02-08 16-20-54

And it scales appropriately to its content.

Under the hood, Nepaltechguy2 updated the local storage mechanism in addressing #1852 to use localforage. Bottersnike did a major overhaul of the Block API in an initial stab at making Music Blocks more compliant with a "Model–View–Controller" approach to programming. Previously the definition of a block was spread across a half-dozen files. Now it is defined within a single class. The new code is much easier to read and maintain. Pidddgy reworked the interaction with the CreateJS updater to eliminate unnecessary screen refreshes that were needlessly consuming CPU cycles. The result is a 90% reduction in CPU usage when Music Blocks is idle.

Regarding the incompatibility, it is perhaps best explained with an example. If you use a "click" event to play some music, the timing of the event is not likely to be synced to the master clock. Music Blocks uses a strategy of trying to "catch up" when notes are falling behind, so without a Sync or No-clock Block, the playback will be truncated. In previous releases of Music Blocks, this synchronization strategy was sometimes bypassed. Now it is more rigorously enforced.

Screenshot from 2020-02-08 16-25-10

This will no longer work as expected: all three notes in the action block will be truncated.

Screenshot from 2020-02-08 16-26-45

A No-clock Block to the rescue.

Screenshot from 2020-02-08 16-27-09

Or, better yet, a Sync block.

New Features:

The Distance Block calculates the distance between two points.

The Synth Volume Block returns the current volume setting of a synth.
