M-EMPTY-BARS

[GENERIC-FUNCTION]


OMTimePack
Function Reference
ARGUMENTS:
  - pool list of (numerator denominator) pairs  
  - ptable probability table (flat or nested list) controls random process  
  - tot-time target duration of output bars [default = 0]
  - init-conds context for first few random choices  

Description:


Randomly selects time signatures (representing empty bars) from POOL and
appends them to the output list until the accumulated length is at least
TOT-TIME. Random selections are controlled by the probabilities in PTABLE.

BPF-driven interpolation is possible on the PTABLE as in M-RHYTHM.

The first output is the resulting list of empty bars, and the second
reports the end context, which may serve as initial conditions for the
next in a cascaded series of M-EMPTY-BARS functions.
