I suppose lack of dynamic sign at the beginning of the music may be the cause of the problem. See http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/controlling-midi-dynamics : midiMinimumVolume and midiMaximumVolume properties have an effect only on dynamic marks, so a dynamic mark must be placed at the beginning of the score if you want them to work properly. In other words, \version 2.14.0 \include "articulate.ly" \score { << \new Voice { c \mf d e f } \new Voice { \set Staff.midiMinimumVolume = #0.2 \set Staff.midiMaximumVolume = #0.5 c''\mf c'' c'' c'' } >> \midi {} } works for me (i.e. the high c's are quieter than low melody). HTH, Janek PS there is a bit different wording in Notation Reference than what i wrote. Maybe it should be changed to simpler english? _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
