I'm using the Pedtools package in R to recreate pedigree charts from a set of handmade records for analysis and so I can generate chart images at different resolutions, colors, etc. I'm running into an issue where I want to make a pedigree with individuals who are married without kids and Pedtools locks out any individual that doesn't contribute to the family genetically.

I can see why this design choice makes sense for actual analysis of genetics and relatedness, but I've been specifically asked to illustrate the prevalence of a condition while including literally all members of the family where records are available, including those without kids.

Is there a different R package I should use for this task or is there a way to override the Pedtools plotting method that I missed?

I am exploring methods to make music in R and I wanted to ask what R libraries exist for manipulating audio and MIDI data. My goal is to build some kind of sampler/synthesizer/sequencer setup that can either render audio/MIDI files, or send that data directly to speakers, a synthesizer, or a Digital Audio Workstation.

So far, the "audio" library seems the most useful for my goal since it can generate and play WAV files from digital signal data.

I've been livecoding and producing music for a few years and I've been using R more at my current job so I want to see if I can use my work coding skills with my fun coding.
