This might not be much help, but I tried your file on 2.8.6 (which I am still using) with a rearrangement of the \midi \layout and \score to suit the 2.8.6 format and it seemed to produce correct pdf and midi, although I didn't get the tempo right. Here's the midi file for you to check.
Trevor -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Father Gordon Gilbert Sent: 06 February 2007 16:56 To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: Problems with Midi OK, I'm gonna try this again ... A few days ago, I wrote the list asking a question about midi, and saw that my message came out in the digest, but I've got no help about it, so here's my question again: I'm arranging a hymn for barbershop chorus, and frequently want to check my work to make sure I get the unique barbershop harmonies correct. I was playing the midi file (with simple piano -- instrument is not important). This was working fine until I introduced some 'divisi' voices in the last stanza. Then, all of a sudden the midi file seemed only to contain (or at least, only to play) the lower staff notes. Nothing I do seems to help this -- I can't play the full piece. I've tried with the jEdit LilyPond Tool interface, and with WinAmp -- both sound the same. When I compile, I get no warnings about anything going wrong, nor do I have any problem with the PDF display. I *would* appreciate faster compile times, but I'm told I need more RAM for that, so I'll settle for fixing my midi ... I am using LilyPond 2.11.14, jEdit 4.3pre9, LilyPond Tool, and Windoze XP Pro. My file follows my signature. Thanks for your help. Fr.
