It’s a great concept. I know this is probably not the first thing on your mind but do you have a way you can think of to notate position in front of or behind the actual note divisions to indicate swing or microtiming?

I did see wgat you said about the @ for elektron sequencing but I wasn’t clear on the usage.

Just as a sidenote I used to have to do something similar because back in the day I would use a hardware 16 track digital recorder to sequence things so I would use a similar notation system in that after having recorded individual notes in scale grouping or key groupings, I would then chop the notes into the desired lengths and then place them on tracks and then adjust volume and eq to get a better sound because sometimes you can get a more realistic chord voicing by accentuating the notes you would hear more prominently (top note etc) in a real instrument, then I would record/ bounce the chords down to single tracks, but in the case of creating for example, human sounding chords like guitar strums, I would note how many milliseconds before or after the actual note division so I could recreate a chord with the same sound. I would have the length of the note then +/- milliseconds difference from the note that fell on the logical division of time. Elektron devices don’t operate in time based sequencing though so I wasn’t sure how to apply my own system to the elektron sequencer and I just wondered if this had been something you already thought of.
