tone_synth object
This method inserts a rest or pause into the music for a specified number of beats.
bool rest(double beats)
Parameters:
beats
Number of beats to rest
Return value:
true on success, false on failure.
Remarks:
This method can also be used as a fast forward option.
As the tone synth supports chords, it is essential that you call this method before moving on to your next phrase, otherwise all notes will be mashed into one area.
Example:
// Make a C major chord in the bass and a spread out C major chord as the melody. This uses the rest method to spread the notes.
tone_synth synth;
void main()
{
synth.tempo=120;
//chord
synth.waveform_type=2;
synth.note("C4", 4);
synth.note("E4", 4);
synth.note("G4", 4);
//melody
synth.waveform_type=3;
synth.note("C5", 0.666);
synth.rest(0.666);
synth.note("E5", 0.666);
synth.rest(0.666);
synth.note("G5", 0.666);
synth.rest(0.666);
synth.note("C6", 2);
synth.write_wave_file("synth.wav");
