Strange error(?) message when invoking lilypond-book

I'm running OS X 10.11 and LilyPond version 2.18.2-1. I'm trying to invoke lilypond-book via terminal by typing the following (I've tried getting the path option to work, but I've given up after a gazillion tries): /Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond-book Test.lytex Wha

Yes, it seems to adress the same question. However, I don't know how to apply the answer to my SATB setup where every staff line has about the same properties. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Temporary-disable-RemoveEmptyStaffContext-for-individual-staffs-

Im using the \RemoveEmptyStaffContext command and it works exactly as I expect it to. However, sometimes, I would like a certain staff to show up even though it only contains rests (for example, if a certain staff only is empty for a couple of bars, it might be more confusing to remove it and let i

That is correct. However, I want to remove the CC#7 commands all together, not modify them. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Surpress-CC-7-commands-in-MIDI-output-tp158188p158214.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _

Well, I could come to think of several different solutions if I just wanted to do this a couple of times. However, these are files that I constantly update and change and I would like to not have to make the changes in 9 different files every time (some of the arrangements are for SSAATTBB). I did

Off-topic: Automatically create rehearsal files from SATB midi file

I'm sorry that that I'm going off-topic here (well, it's not /that/ off-topic), but I thought that if I could find anybody who knew how to do what I'm trying to achieve right now, it would be a hardcore LilyPond user :) Anyhow, I'm using LilyPond to output midi files of my SATB arrangements. Now,

Surpress CC#7 commands in MIDI output

2014-01-19 Thread Speldosa
I've noticed that Lilypond, for its midi output, starts each track off by sending a CC#7 command (channel volume) on each channel with a value of 100. This create some problems for me, for example when I'm importing and playing the data in Logic and want to change the channel volume (yes, I could s

Is it possible to invert the two-sided option?

I would like to use \paper{two-sided = ##t} in order to have different margins for even and odd pages. However, when activating this option, odd pages get larger right margins and even pages get larger left margins. I'd like to have it the other way around, so that odd pages get larger left margins
