Description

Small Arrow Vortex clipboard processing library.

Install

You can install this library from PyPI with pip install av-clipboard-lib or compile it from source with python setup.py build.

Usage

import av_clipboard_lib as av

# A copy of [12][23][14] pattern, 16ths. 
row_based_copy = """ArrowVortex:notes:!!WE'!<<-/!Xo&G!uM"""
# A copy of [12][23][13] pattern, 16ths.
changed_row_based_copy = """ArrowVortex:notes:!!WE'!<<-/!Xo&G!Z1"""
# Same copy of [12][23][14] pattern, 0.5 seconds between each chord.
time_based_copy = """ArrowVortex:notes:!<rN(z!!!!"zz!<<*"!!!#W56:fbzi'.2Az!:W2Tz!!)LQ"""
# A copy of two BPM changes and a stop. 60 BPM, 90 BPM and 0.75 second stop.
structural_copy = """ArrowVortex:tempo:!WW3#zz:-]Wrz!!!"L<^6Zd0E;(Qz!!)4I!!"""
