Laborejo, Esperanto for "Workshop", is used to craft music through notation. It is a Lilypond GUI frontend, a MIDI creator and finally a tool collection to inspire and help you compose. It works by reducing music-redundancy and by seperating layout and data.

Check Help->Manual for navigational and note/rest entry keys. Everything else is in the menus. New since version 0.2 (highlights): -Many performance and stability improvements -Improved Midi performance. Slur ends, tenuto etc. -Ardour 3 exporter -Fine control over midi velocity and note durations per note. -Translation is now possible. A partial German translation is included. -Lisalo Importer (convenient way to create new files with all jack connections set up already) -Mirror notes, reverse, shuffle, sort ascending/descending -The GUI can now open multiple files in tabs. -Open as template: Use existing save files as templates for new ones. No need for explicit template files. Every file is one. -Many new Lilypond and GUI functions such as: Auto-Piano staff from a single track (great for arpeggios), piano pedals and many more. -Convert chord-tracks to single voice tracks Most important known problems: * This is Alpha Grade Software. Don't use for long-term work. However, the produced midis and PDFs will last forever. * There is no built-in jack midi output yet. You have to export midi files. * Documentation is nearly non-existent. * Deleting selected objects may result in strange gui behaviour. Nothing a save/reload can't fix for now. Have fun, it would be nice to hear from you!
