> lilypond-user@ > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user Hello, I recently made an in-depth video tutorial on how to input music fast with LilyPond and your MIDI keyboard, as well as use Frescobaldi for very quick input (articulations, dynamics, hairpins, etc). If you're interested here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdA1NLcBxLo Are you using a GUI editor for LilyPond currently? If not, you should consider trying out Frescobaldi. I have setup some custom snippets, quick keyboard shortcuts, and combined with MIDI keyboard input I have increased my speed tremendously.
