MIDI nuance

Some of you might be interested that my microtonal MIDI converter (free
and web-based):
http://music.columbia.edu/~chris/micromidi

features an "articulation" capability that allows you to type in a simple
command (like "CRESC" or "TREMOLO" or "VIBRATO" or "HAIRPIN"), to add
slight vibrato, tremolo, or hairpin dynamic curves (and other nuances) to
midi notes without too much trouble on your part.

My software, will then go ahead and write lots of MIDI-volume, -panning,
-pitch-bending, etc. values to effect expression and random realistic
nuance to notes.

My software is much much simpler than SCALA, but I don't think the latter
has this capability . . .

I'll post some sounds soon . . .

Have you considered a non-web version? That would seem to be more useful.

Actually, the "web" version is merely a PHP front-end to a non-web
program, and that latter software is what I use at home.

Unfortunately, it's in LISP, because I'm an addict, and that's what I
program in, even low-level kinds of things . . crazy as it sounds.

Runs quite nicely in LISP though . . .if you've got LISP I'd be happy to
send it to you . . .

If I installed a Common Lisp interpreter under either Windows or
Linux, does this mean I could run the program? Those should be easy to
get.
