There has been some discussion about adding Braille music notation
output for LilyPond. I believe that Ralph Little was the last person to
be investigating this; I've CC'd this message to his email accounts.
I'm not certain how much time (and technical information) he has, so
don't get too hopeful until you hear from him.
MIDI topics are found quite a ways into the documentation, and at least for
me,
they assume quite a bit of knowledge about LilyPond when explaining how to best
get
midi output from an input file.
To get basic MIDI output, you simply add \midi{}. Here is a complete
example:
\score{
\relative c' {
c4 c c c
}
\layout {}
\midi {}
}
There are ways of fine-tuning the loudness of different instruments, but
this is more complicated. Be aware that MIDI output is not a priority
for LilyPond -- for example, articulations have no affect on MIDI output
(I believe that they do in Sibelius).
Cheers,
