Hi,

First of all, congratulations on bach 0.8.1, this is just AMAZING!!!

The integration of dynamics makes a real expressive leap forward in my case.

I am now exploring bach.eval and the bell language, which makes patching much clearer, but I've been confronted with the impossibility to make expressions longer. I am probably miss-using it, but :

this works
bach.eval $x1:1 $x1:3 $x1:2 $x1:4 $x1:3 $x1:5 $x1:4 $x1:6

while that doesn't work
bach.eval $x1:1 $x1:3 $x1:2 $x1:4 $x1:3 $x1:5 $x1:4 $x1:6 $x1:5

should I just cope with it? Or is there a work around?

Thanks, and congrats on the great work!

That seems like a bug of the object to me. I'll let andrea answer though.
On my side, I can give you a workaround

bach.eval $x1:(1 3 2 4 3 5 4 6 5)

So much neater

Many thanks!

Hello Jonathan,

I can confirm the issue. It not about the length of the expression, but specifically to the : operator. By the way, the dot operator has the same problem.

For now, you can adopt Daniele's solution, or—for a more general case—add parens: ($x1:1) ($x2:2) ($foo.'three') and so on will work regardless of the expression length.

Best,
andrea

Thanks a lot,

I can make it work now
