% note durations. % time signature = 4/4 % quarter note = 180bpm => quarter note duration is 60/180 minute. Q=60/180; H=2*Q; % Half note W=4*Q; % Whole note En=Q/2; %Eighth note DQ=Q+En; %Dotted quarter

%frequencies % A=440 = 5x/3 => x=264 % Middle C (do) = x = 264; % D (re)=9x/8=297; % E (mi)=5x/4=330; % F (fa)=4x/3=352; % GL (so)=3x/2/2=198; % AL (low la)=5x/3/2=220; % BL (low ti)=15x/8/2=247.5;
