Atte -
Here's one way - there certainly are others:
notes = 0:11
names(notes) = c("C","C#","D","D#","E","F","F#","G","G#","A","A#","B")
pc = notes[substr(V4,1,nchar(V4) - 1)]
names(pc) = NULL
pcAb = pc + 12 * as.numeric(substr(V4,nchar(V4),nchar(V4)))
names(pcAb) = NULL

Hi,
I have a column (V4) in a midi event list which includes tone pitch
names,
i.e. "A4, E4, C#4, A3...":
V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7
1 1 1 0 A4 96 2 0
2 1 1 0 E4 96 2 0
3 1 1 0 C#4 96 2 0
4 1 1 0 A3 96 2 0
5 1 3 0 B4 96 1 0
6 1 3 0 E4 96 1 0
7 1 3 0 B3 96 1 0
8 1 3 0 G#3 96 1 0
9 1 4 0 C#5 96 1 0
10 1 4 0 D4 96 0 512
Now I'd like to change them to "pitch classes" (column "pc" here, which
has the values between 0-11, using modulo 12) and absolute midi numbers
(column pcAb, values 0->107), so as results A4 gives 9 and 57 (and for
example C0 gives 0 and O, C2-> 0 and 24 etc):
V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7 pc pcAb
1 1 1 0 A4 96 2 0 9 57
2 1 1 0 E4 96 2 0 4 52
3 1 1 0 C#4 96 2 0 1 49
4 1 1 0 A3 96 2 0 9 45
5 1 3 0 B4 96 1 0 11 59
6 1 3 0 E4 96 1 0 4 52
7 1 3 0 B3 96 1 0 11 47
8 1 3 0 G#3 96 1 0 8 44
9 1 4 0 C#5 96 1 0 1 61
10 1 4 0 D4 96 0 512 2 50
I have done it this way (see next under this comment), but there must be
some shorter way, using for-loop and paste-command with sep="" or some
other way?:
