Before using pitchMap you need integers rather than strings. A = NestList[ StringReplace[#, {"0" -> "2", "2" -> "12", "1" -> "23", "3" -> "45", "4" -> "56"}] &, "0", 7] // ToExpression // IntegerDigits // Flatten; pitchMap = {0 -> "B4", 1 -> "C4", 2 -> "D4", 3 -> "E4", 4 -> "F4", 5 -> "G4", 6 -> "A4"}; Sound[Thread[SoundNote[A] /. pitchMap]] or Sound[SoundNote /@ A /. pitchMap] Bob Hanlon On Sun, Nov 17, 2013 at 6:22 PM, Dean Rosenthal <deanrosenthal at gmail.com>wrote: > Hi: > > My question is going to take all of you about a split second to answer. > Sadly, programming is something I seem to be congenitally incapable of > teaching myself and doing well.
