Abstract

An audio formatting process identifies a musical score of audio information operable to be rendered by a rendering application. The audio formatting process enumerates aspects of the score such that the aspects are operable to define renderable features of the score. The aspects further define a duration modifiable by the rendering application to a predetermined duration that preserves the tempo of the score. Additionally, the audio formatting process stores the enumerated aspects according to a predetermined syntax operable to indicate to the rendering application the manner of accessing each of the aspects of the score.
