Fomus
Notation
Most of these behave as user overrides to FOMUS's automatic algorithms.
:CAUTACC
indicates that a cautionary accidental is to be placed before
the note. :FORCEACC
forces an accidental spelling. :NOTEHEAD
indicates a different notehead. The :CLEF
and :CLEF-
spanner marks
indicate clef changes and regions where a certain clef is required. A
clef spanner must occur in a single voice. The :STAFF
and :STAFF-
spanner marks indicate staff choice overrides for instruments with more
than one staff (ie. a grandstaff). All marks containing 8UP
and
8DOWN
are overrides for ottava brackets and must be specified for
notes that appear in a single staff rather than a voice. The :TIE
mark
ties a note to the following or previous note depending on whether
:BEFORE
or :AFTER
(default) is supplied and whether or note the
adjacent note is the same.
