Pitchtools
This module provides a set of functions to work with musical pitch. It enables to convert between frequenies, midinotes and notenames
Examples
Convert some note names to frequencies
>>> from pitchtools import *
>>> ebscale = "4Eb 4F 4G 4Ab 4Bb 5C 5D".split()
>>> for note in ebscale:
... freq = n2f(note)
... midinote = f2m(freq)
... print(f"{note} = {freq:.1f}Hz (midinote = {midinote})")
4Eb = 312.5 Hz (midi = 63.0)
4F = 350.8 Hz (midi = 65.0)
4G = 393.7 Hz (midi = 67.0)
4Ab = 417.2 Hz (midi = 68.0)
4Bb = 468.3 Hz (midi = 70.0)
5C = 525.6 Hz (midi = 72.0)
5D = 590.0 Hz (midi = 74.0)The same but with a different reference frequency
from pitchtools import *
ebscale = "4Eb 4F 4G 4Ab 4Bb 5C 5D".split()
cnv = Converter(a4=435)
for note in ebscale:
# Convert to frequency with default a4=442 Hz
freq = cnv.n2f(note)
midinote = cnv.[Of2m(freq)
print(f"{note} = {freq} Hz (midinote = {midinote})")Microtones
>>> from pitchtools import *
>>> n2m("4C+")
60.5
>>> n2m("4Db-10")
60.9
>>> m2n(61.2)
