[comp.music] O Canada, Norton's Utilities question?

RJS106@PSUVM.BITNET (Pierre Stanton) (12/01/89)

     I would like to know the first 10 notes(frequencies) in the Canadian
National Anthem so I could put it in my BAT file.  I am planning on doing this
using Norton's Utilities Batch Enhancer BEEP command...  My problem
arises from the fact that I am not musically inclined (ie. don't know
how to read music ).

   The BEEP command format goes like this:

   BEEP /Fnnnnn /Dnn /Rn /Wnn
            \     \    \   \__WAIT nn/18th of a second between notes
             \     \    \
              \     \    \__REPEAT note n amount of times
               \     \
                \     \__DURATION, hold note nn/18th of a second long
                 \
                  \__FREQUENCY in Hz (Cycles per second)


Notez Bien (NB.)  That the Duration and Wait subcommand are in eighteenths
                  of a second, therefore if nn equals 72 it would hold the
                  note for 4 seconds.


Any and all help would be highly appeciated,
