description	Standard syncopation transforms for Strudel mini-notation. Shows how to replace a plain note with a syncopated group using [], ~, and @ operators. Triggered by "/syncopations" or referenced by the anchor-framework skill.

syncopations

Apply syncopation to notes in a Strudel pattern by replacing a plain note value with one of these mini-notation transforms.

/syncopations

No arguments needed — returns the full set of available transforms.

Replace any note in your pattern with one of these:

Original	Transform	Effect
`note`	`[~ note]`	Delayed entry — rest first, note second
`note`	`[note ~]`	Early cutoff — note first, then silence
`note`	`[note@2 ~]`	Note held for 2/3 of the step, then silence
`note`	`[~ note@2]`	Silence for 1/3, then note held for 2/3
`note`	`[~ ~ note]`	Late entry — two rests then note

Pick a few notes in your pattern and apply transforms at random — do not syncopate every note or the rhythm becomes too busy.

n("9 8 7 7 6 5 5 4 3 2 1 0")

n("9 [8 ~] 7 7 [~ 6@2] 5 5 4 [3 ~] 2 1 0")

@ sets the relative duration weight of a sub-step (e.g. note@2 takes twice as long as ~)
[] groups sub-steps so they fit within a single parent step
These transforms preserve the anchor points — only apply them to non-anchor steps when working with the /anchor-framework skill
