I was thinking along the lines of defining my own sort of drumpitch-init.ly file and mapping my notes to the midi pitches. Is this possible?
I currently have: %RightHand and LeftHand pitchnamesSidedrum = #`( (rh . ,(ly:make-pitch 0 1 NATURAL)) (lh . ,(ly:make-pitch 0 -1 NATURAL)) ) #(ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnamesSidedrum) and tell Lilypond to map those notes to the snare sound (or the bass or tomtom)? any hints on how the drumpth-init.ly file actually works? 2009/4/17 Nick Payne <nick.pa...@internode.on.net>: > Try \set Staff.midiInstrument="gunshot" > > Nick > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Matthew Rowles [mailto:rowle...@gmail.com] >> Sent: Friday, 17 April 2009 20:51 >> To: Nick Payne >> Cc: lilypond-user >> Subject: Re: Pick a pitch/instrument in MIDI output >> >> I've read all of that. >> >> All of those instruments are pitched.
