Built in functions

The functions on this page are available without loading any extensions. They provide a base that most extensions build off of.

level:offset(beat)

Changes the global event offset by beat beats.

Example:

level:comment(4, 'oh wow') -- Places a comment on beat 4. :comment is available in the core extension.

level:offset(2) -- Changes the global event offset to 2. All events from this point on will be placed 2 beats later.

level:comment(6, 'haha') -- Places a comment on beat 8.

level:offset(-4) -- The beat parameter can be negative. It causes the beats to be placed earlier.

level:comment(16, 'awesome') -- Places a comment on beat 12.
