Actually, this is something I really do like about LilyPond. I don't play piano or guitar, and the quickest way I have to experiment with chords progressions when composing is to dump them into LilyPond (both in a chord symbols context and as notation) and begin experimenting from there. ãthe fact that I can type in a progression and hear it ten seconds later is pretty useful.
While I'm at it, does anyone know of any other Linux software that can do this? Last time I looked Rosegarden would take a guess at what a chord was and display the symbol, but I don't remember being able to enter chord names directly. -- ============================================= Cameron Horsburgh http://web.netcall.com.au/horsburgh ============================================= _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
