I've found snippets explaining how to get this to look right (subito in normal italics, the "p" or "pp" in dynamic font), and another snippet showing how to create a custom dynamic that correctly sets the midi volume, but not one that does both. What is the best way to add a text prefix to a dynamic whilst also retaining the dynamic's effect on MIDI output? >
Hello, You could adapt Graham's "make-dynamic-extra" into a "make-extra-dynamic". https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2011-06/msg00335.html IIRC the alignment was correct (dynamic part was aligned on note head ) and it was correctly recognized for MIDI generation. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2017-08/msg00381.html Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer <x.sche...@gmail.com>
