=head1 NAME

Music::Gestalt - Compose music using gestalts.

=head1 VERSION

Version 0.06

=cut

our $VERSION = '0.06';

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Music::Gestalt;

    # see below

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module helps to compose music using musical gestalts (forms). A gestalt is
similar to a list in L format, but so far it only supports note
events, and all parameters are expressed as values between 0 and 1. This allows
for more flexible transformations of the musical material.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=head2 C

  my $g = Music::Gestalt->new(score => $score);

Creates a new Music::Gestalt object. The optional score argument receives
a score in L format.

=head2 C

Returns the note length property of this gestalt. "1" means that the
original note lengths are retained, ".5" means that each note is half
as long as it originally was.

If you pass a value as a parameter, it will be used as new note length.

=head2 C

Sets and returns the density of this gestalt. The initial density is 1, meaning
that all notes will be used. At density 0, a score created from this gestalt
will have no events. At density 0.5, a score created from this gestalt will
have half the original events, selected at random.

It is intentional that the density may not be greater than 1; there are too
many possible ways to generate additional events.

=head2 C

Returns or sets the pitches used in this gestalt. You should pass a
reference to a list that contains the pitch numbers used. Returns a
reference to a list of pitches that will be used.
An empty list signifies that all pitches are used.
Note that the set of pitches used is also influenced by the L
parameter.

=head1 AUTOMATION METHODS

Using automation, you can vary a parameter over time (comparable to parameter
automation in sequencers like Logic or Cubase). For each parameter that can be
automated, there are three modes available:

=over 4

=item Absolute mode

In this mode, the currently set parameter values will be I with the
values that you pass to the function. If you pass (0, 100), the parameter
will range from 0 to 100 over the whole gestalt. If you pass (20, 50 20), the
parameter will first rise from 20 to 50, then in the second half of the gestalt
fall from 50 to 20. The parameter value is interpolated at the event's position.

=item Relative mode

In this mode, the currently set parameter values will be I with the
values that you pass to the function. If you pass (0, 1), the parameter
will fade in over the whole gestalt. If you pass (.2, .5 .2), the
parameter will first fade in from 20% to 50%, then in the second half of
the gestalt fade out from 50% to 20%. The parameter value is interpolated
at the event's position.

=item Off

Automation will not be applied.

=back

Here are some examples how to call the automation functions:

  $g->AutomateVelocityOff(); # default
  $g->AutomateVelocityAbs(20, 50, 20);
  $g->AutomateVelocityRel(0, 1);

The values passed to the automation methods will be applied evenly-spaced.

The following automation methods are available:

=over 4

=item C, C, C

=cut

sub AutomateVelocityOff {
    my $self = shift;

    delete $self->{automation}->{velocity};
}

sub AutomateVelocityAbs {
    my $self = shift;
    if (scalar @_) {
        $self->{automation}->{velocity}->{mode}   = 'absolute';
        $self->{automation}->{velocity}->{values} =
          [map { _min(127, _max(0, $_)) } @_];
    }

    return $self->{automation}->{velocity};
}

sub AutomateVelocityRel {
    my $self = shift;
    if (scalar @_) {
        $self->{automation}->{velocity}->{mode}   = 'relative';
        $self->{automation}->{velocity}->{values} = [@_];
    }

    return $self->{automation}->{velocity};
}

=item C, C, C

=cut

sub AutomatePitchMiddleOff {
    my $self = shift;

    delete $self->{automation}->{pitch_middle};
}

sub AutomatePitchMiddleAbs {
    my $self = shift;
    if (scalar @_) {
        $self->{automation}->{pitch_middle}->{mode}   = 'absolute';
        $self->{automation}->{pitch_middle}->{values} =
          [map { _min(127, _max(0, $_)) } @_];
    }

    return $self->{automation}->{pitch_middle};
}

sub AutomatePitchMiddleRel {
    my $self = shift;
    if (scalar @_) {
        $self->{automation}->{pitch_middle}->{mode}   = 'relative';
        $self->{automation}->{pitch_middle}->{values} = [@_];
