float Pitch::getFrequencyForPitch ( int  midiPitch,
float  centsOffset = 0,
float  concertA = 0.0 
) [static]

Return the frequency at the given MIDI pitch plus centsOffset cents (1/100ths of a semitone).

centsOffset does not have to be in any particular range or sign.

If concertA is non-zero, use that as the reference frequency for the A at MIDI pitch 69; otherwise use the tuning frequency specified in the application preferences (default 440Hz).

int Pitch::getPitchForFrequency ( float  frequency,
float *  centsOffsetReturn = 0,
float  concertA = 0.0 
) [static]

Return the nearest MIDI pitch to the given frequency.

If centsOffsetReturn is non-NULL, return in *centsOffsetReturn the number of cents (1/100ths of a semitone) difference between the given frequency and that of the returned MIDI pitch. The cents offset will be in the range [-50,50).

If concertA is non-zero, use that as the reference frequency for the A at MIDI pitch 69; otherwise use the tuning frequency specified in the application preferences (default 440Hz).

int Pitch::getPitchForFrequencyDifference ( float  frequencyA,
float  frequencyB,
float *  centsOffsetReturn = 0,
float  concertA = 0.0 
) [static]

Return the nearest MIDI pitch range to the given frequency range, that is, the difference in MIDI pitch values between the higher and lower frequencies.

If centsOffsetReturn is non-NULL, return in *centsOffsetReturn the number of cents (1/100ths of a semitone) difference between the given frequency difference and the returned MIDI pitch range. The cents offset will be in the range [-50,50).

If concertA is non-zero, use that as the reference frequency for the A at MIDI pitch 69; otherwise use the tuning frequency specified in the application preferences (default 440Hz).

QString Pitch::getPitchLabel ( int  midiPitch,
float  centsOffset = 0,
bool  useFlats = false 
) [static]

Return a string describing the given MIDI pitch, with optional cents offset.

This consists of the note name, octave number (with MIDI pitch 0 having octave number -2), and optional cents.

For example, "A#3" (A# in octave 3) or "C2-12c" (C in octave 2, minus 12 cents).

If useFlats is true, spell notes with flats instead of sharps, e.g. Bb3 instead of A#3.

QString Pitch::getPitchLabelForFrequency ( float  frequency,
float  concertA = 0.0,
bool  useFlats = false 
) [static]

Return a string describing the nearest MIDI pitch to the given frequency, with cents offset.

If concertA is non-zero, use that as the reference frequency for the A at MIDI pitch 69; otherwise use the tuning frequency specified in the application preferences (default 440Hz).

If useFlats is true, spell notes with flats instead of sharps, e.g. Bb3 instead of A#3.

QString Pitch::getLabelForPitchRange ( int  semis,
float  cents = 0 
) [static]

Return a string describing the given pitch range in octaves, semitones and cents.

This is in the form e.g. "1'2+4c".

bool Pitch::isFrequencyInMidiRange ( float  frequency,
float  concertA = 0.0 
) [static]

Return true if the given frequency falls within the range of MIDI note pitches, plus or minus half a semitone.

This is equivalent to testing whether getPitchForFrequency returns a pitch in the MIDI range (0 to 127 inclusive) with any cents offset.

If concertA is non-zero, use that as the reference frequency for the A at MIDI pitch 69; otherwise use the tuning frequency specified in the application preferences (default 440Hz).
