I'm sorry to top post. My outlook online email client doesn't work well with the Liypond mailer, and my desktop Outlook client is broken right now.
Have you looked at the lilypond log file? Your snippet creates errors. var/folders/q5/88k2s1717qv1v7rq4tqz53k80000gn/T/frescobaldi-5i3u1hok/tmpc7w_p6ze/document.ly:4:28: error: not a note name: … \tempo "Allegro" 2 = 200 … 400 … 600 /var/folders/q5/88k2s1717qv1v7rq4tqz53k80000gn/T/frescobaldi-5i3u1hok/tmpc7w_p6ze/document.ly:4:30: error: not a duration \tempo "Allegro" 2 = 200 … 400 … 600 /var/folders/q5/88k2s1717qv1v7rq4tqz53k80000gn/T/frescobaldi-5i3u1hok/tmpc7w_p6ze/document.ly:4:34: error: not a note name: … \tempo "Allegro" 2 = 200 … 400 … 600 /var/folders/q5/88k2s1717qv1v7rq4tqz53k80000gn/T/frescobaldi-5i3u1hok/tmpc7w_p6ze/document.ly:4:36: error: not a duration \tempo "Allegro" 2 = 200 … 400 … 600 You have improper lilypond code. The code below should give you accelerating tempo in midi (but it does it in steps, not continuously). theMusic = \relative { \tempo "Largo" 4 = 50 c''4 c c c | \tempo "Allegro" 2 = 200 c2 c \set Score.tempoHideNote = ##t \tempo 2 = 400 c c | \set Score.tempoHideNote = ##t \tempo 2 = 600 c c c c | } Carl ________________________________________ From: lilypond-user <lilypond-user-bounces+carl.d.sorensen=gmail....@gnu.org> on behalf of Mario Bolognani <mario.bologn...@gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2022 10:20 AM To: Knute Snortum Cc: lilypond-user Subject: Re: problems with \tempo Many thanks Knute, using your snippet in this way: theMusic = \relative { \tempo "Largo" 4 = 50 c''4 c c c | \tempo "Allegro" 2 = 200 … 400 … 600 c2 c c c | } nothing changes. The midi output of “Allegro” is not going progressively faster.
