Re: Lyric representation in MIDI?
Mats Bengtsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
For songs with several verses, I guess the lyric printouts won't
make any sense, no matter how we place the information in the MIDI
files.
Not unless we introduce some kind of semantic to tell Lilypond that
they are verses, anyway.
pseudocode-like idea:
\repeat verses 3 \music
...
\lyricsto foo \verses { \verseI \verseII \verseIII }
...where a \repeat verses wouldn't show up in print, but could be
expanded in MIDI, and \verses would put its arguments below each other
in print and after each other (or just output the first argument)
in MIDI.
I'm not offering to implement or sponsor this, though; I'm just trying
to point out what would be needed to get somehow intelligent MIDI
output for multiple verses automatically.
Within today's framework and a bit of hacking, the same effect can of
course be acheived with a separate \score block for MIDI, but not as
automatically. Here's what I do currently:
\score {
\new Score {
\global
\unfoldRepeats
\markups
\new Staff = Tenor I {
\set Staff.midiInstrument = #oboe
\tiMusic
}
\new Staff = Tenor II {
\set Staff.midiInstrument = #trumpet
\tiiMusic
}
\new Staff = Bass I {
\set Staff.midiInstrument = #bassoon
\biMusic
}
\new Staff = Bass II {
\set Staff.midiInstrument = #baritone sax
\biiMusic
}
}
\midi {}
}
\global and \markups hold different common stuff here, while \tiMusic
etc hold music for each voice.
Notice the complete lack of lyrics in my MIDI output when I use this.
(The \score block I use for printing is of course quite different.)

Re: Header on all pages - how to ?
What do you want to appear in the page header? By default, only the page number and the instrument name are typeset, except for the first page, where only the page number is printed. This can be changed, but it's easiest to answer your question if you tell more exactly what you want printed. One example, showing how to include the title of the piece at the top of every page, can be found at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2007-02/msg00638.html /Mats Helmut Arnold wrote: Hi list, I'm new to this list and with lilypond.

Re: Chords problem

Hello.
I want to insert a few (not all) chord names in a sheet.
I trid the following:
\relative c {
..
\chords { cis:m1 }
{ cis,1 }
..
}
but then the Chord name is below the melody.
Not so here; this code
You missed the .. in the example above. Christian wants to introduce the
ChordNames context in the middle of the piece, not from the top.
The following example shows one way to do it:
\new Staff = mystaff \relative c' {
c d e f \chords{ \set alignAboveContext = mystaff cis:m1 } {cis,1 }
}

Re: Header on all pages - how to ?
Hello Mats,
many thanks for your hints it works now. After some trials my script now
looks like:
\paper{
oddHeaderMarkup = \markup
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:title
\fromproperty #'header:instrument
% This will make sure that the header is never completely
empty, to
% avoid some layout problems. Also, moving it in between the
title and
% the page number, makes these be typeset left and right
aligned, respectively.
\on-the-fly #print-page-number-check-first \fromproperty
#'page:page-number-string
}
evenHeaderMarkup = \markup
\fill-line {
\on-the-fly #print-page-number-check-first \fromproperty
#'page:page-number-string
\fromproperty #'header:title
\fromproperty #'header:instrument
}
}
Regards
Helmut
