Re:Transpose
I am using LP 2.8.6 on a Windows 98 300MHz machine. My current problem is in transposing a song (for a grand daughter) and a whole bunch of double accidentals and natural/accidental combinations have turned up in the resultant printout - not too good for fast recognition by the accompanist (according to my wife). I have found a snippet quoted in NR 1.1.2 for LP 2.12.2 which looks like it could do a simplifying job on the music, but is designed for another notation language other than English. As I wouldn't know an 'es' or an 'is' if I fell over them and know nothing about scheme, I am asking has someone already translated this for an English notation and whether this snippet could be applied to LP 2.8.6.

Also choose carefully a transpose interval which does not give too much accidentals. For example, given a tune with sharps in the key signature, if you want it to be transposed half a step up, do not try to transpose it from c to c sharp, because you'll end with many double sharps. Transpose it from c to d flat, which has the same effect but simplifies the resulting key. Also remember to include the original \key command into the expression being transposed, if you want it to be transposed as well. -- Francisco Vila.

Re: Sibelius conversion - sib2ly (from NtEd author)
Hi all! Here some remarks by the author of NtEd concerning sib2ly and the mail by Johan Vromans: NtEd has problems importing the MIDI. It seems to insist on putting the 4 voices on a single staff. Indeed, NtEd is the one and only LINUX software which distributes the MIDI notes onto multiple voices per staff. This is necessary in many cases. All other LINUX software MIDI tools produce nonsense if the MIDI -- score process would actually require multiple voices per staff. But true is also: The NtEd MIDI import is buggy, it crashes and hangs :-(( I'm about to implement a new algoritm which partly works but will be published not until May. This will have an appropriate button: Place different MIDI tracks at different staves. Let me explain why the 4 MIDI tracks appear on one staff: There are MIDI files where every staff is in one track. But there are also MIDI files which contain less tracks than instruments. The worst case is: All instruments are in one track. Many music keyboards produce MIDI files of this kind. How is it possible? There is a MIDI command: MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE (PGM), which switches the instrument. A MIDI file of this sort looks like: PGM flute: note c; PGM piano: note d; PGM organ: note f; a.s.o. Of course, I cannot collect these different instruments in one staff. Therefore, I first separate the notes according to the instrument which shall play them. Unfortunately, this algorithm sorts 4 flutes which appear in 4 tracks into one staff :-(( As already mentioned: There will be a button ... -- J.Anders, GERMANY, TU Chemnitz, Fakultaet fuer Informatik ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Having written MIDI::Tweaks[1] this is a piece of cake ;). After that I ran in the following problem: NtEd occasionally produces notes that are not in the midi data. So in the LP export I get StaffAVoiceA with all notes, and StaffAVoiceB with all rests and a spurious note. Also it sometimes gets the accidentals wrong because apparently the key signature is applied to the first track only. So with key F major, note 70 on track 1 becomes B flat, but on the other tracks it becomes A sharp. I've got demo data if you're interested.

I don't know if the snippet will work with 2.8.6 or not. [1] But in your

It would normally be called by something like

Dear community,
in the below quoted snippet the position of the tie isn't convincing,
in my opinion. It should be al little further apart from the
notes. Off couse I could type \override Tie #'staff-position all the
time, but I would be interested in tweaking it generally.
Is there a possibilitie?
Here the short snippet:
BEGIN
\version 2.12.1
global = { \time 3/4 }
notes = \relative { \times 2/3 {e 16 g, e'~ } e8 ~ e2 ~ \break e 2. \break }

After a cursory look, I would say this file is
badly mangled as regards key signatures.
In part one at bar 29 it helps to say
\key dfinstead of\key cs
because the subseqent notes are e.g. df, gf, ...
Also part one should declare _at_least_ one
additional key change: at bar 13, to \key gf \major
This is odd because to insert this in the low voices
you have to first split up the initial 26 silent bars.
But then again, at the top it says
Generated from a MIDI File by LyFromMIDI ...
So \transpose isn't really your problem at the moment.
You have to get it looking right in the original first.

\new Staff {
\new Voice = alku \relative c' {
\repeat volta 2 { c d e f g a b c }

}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto alku {
cx dx ex fx gx ax bx cx dI eI fI gI
cy dy ey fy gy ay by cy
dII cII bII aII }
}
}
}
% Places where lyrics should be:
% I = first ending
% II = second ending
% x = first stanza
% y = second stanza
%---
Also, if you don't want to have different stanzas, only repeat the same lyrics,
you could add \repeat volta and \alternative to the lyrics.
Perhaps in the future..?

Re: Lyrics and alternative repeats default behavior
Am 30.03.2009 um 17:16 schrieb Pekka Siponen:
I'm not top posting.
I find the behavior with lyrics and alternative repeats somewhat
illogical..
For me the logical thing would be something like:
%---
\version 2.12.2
\score {
\new GrandStaff {
\new Staff {
\new Voice = alku \relative c' {
\repeat volta 2 { c d e f g a b c }
\alternative {
{ d e f g }
{ d c b a }
}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto alku {
cx dx ex fx gx ax bx cx dI eI fI gI
cy dy ey fy gy ay by cy
dII cII bII aII }
}
}
}
% Places where lyrics should be:
% I = first ending
% II = second ending
% x = first stanza
% y = second stanza
%---
Also, if you don't want to have different stanzas, only repeat the
same lyrics,
you could add \repeat volta and \alternative to the lyrics.
Perhaps in the future..?
You can add \repeat and \alternative to the lyrics. Different stanzas
are entered separately. So, your example would be easily notated in
lilypond so:
\version 2.12.2
\score {
\new Staff
\new Voice = alku \relative c' {
\repeat volta 2 { c d e f g a b c }
\alternative {
{ d e f g }
{ d c b a }
}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto alku {
\set stanza = First Stanza
\repeat volta 2 { cx dx ex fx gx ax bx cx }
\alternative {
{ dI eI fI gI }
{ dII cII bII aII }
}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto alku {
\set stanza = Second Stanza
cy dy ey fy gy ay by cy
}
}

Fingering padding with accidentals
The padding that is applied to fingering on the left when there is an
accidental is greater than when there is no accidental. From my measurements
it seems to default to 0.5 staff units from a note but 0.7 units from an
accidental, which looks odd to me. Is it possible to reduce the default
padding from accidentals without having to issue a tweak for every
occurrence and without changing the padding when there is no accidental?

\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)

Re: download versie 2.12
It would be trivial, but as the md5sums would be autogenerated, so it does not buy any protection against anything.

Your measurements are accurate. :)
The padding between fingerings and accidentals is the sum of Fingering
#'padding (0.5) and AccidentalPlacement #'left-padding (0.2).
This should produce the same effect as your tweak:
\relative c' {
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
\override Staff.AccidentalPlacement #'left-padding = #0
f-2 e'-34 fis-2 eis'-3
}

Re: increasing the distance between tie and note generally
2009/3/30 Stefan Thomas kontrapunktste...@googlemail.com: Dear community, in the below quoted snippet the position of the tie isn't convincing, in my opinion. It should be al little further apart from the notes. Off couse I could type \override Tie #'staff-position all the time, but I would be interested in tweaking it generally. Is there a possibilitie? Try this: \override Tie #'staff-position = #(lambda (grob) (let* ((head (ly:grob-parent (ly:grob-original grob) X)) (head-pos (ly:grob-staff-position head))) (cond ((= head-pos 3) (+ head-pos 2.5)) ((= head-pos -3) (- head-pos 2.5) Regards, Neil ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re:Transpose
Good Morning Robin Robin Bannister wrote :- After a cursory look, I would say this file is badly mangled as regards key signatures. In part one at bar 29 it helps to say \key dfinstead of\key cs because the subseqent notes are e.g. df, gf, ... The original key is df but it was changed in an attempt to get rid of double flats. Also part one should declare _at_least_ one additional key change: at bar 13, to \key gf \major This is odd because to insert this in the low voices you have to first split up the initial 26 silent bars. You had better tell Richard Rogers that - I am working from a copy of the printed score. But then again, at the top it says Generated from a MIDI File by LyFromMIDI ... I believe that is blocked with a blank. It is a residual from my templates. I have this Visual Basic programme that will convert MIDI to Ly if the conditions are right and it has been used on occasions when no paper copy is available. Part of the programme allows me to edit the Ly file and I use this to hand enter from paper copies. So \transpose isn't really your problem at the moment. You have to get it looking right in the original first. The original Ly file did produce an exact (well near enough) copy of the paper copy I was working from but it removed all the chord names which I believe a skilled pianist who can read music readily does not require. As for me, I am no musician of any sort and printed music is a lot of lines and dots on sticks, like looking into a paddock through the wire fence at the remains of a wooded paddock after a bushfire has gone through it. I am forbidden to hum, whistle, sing (?) because I have no notion of pitch or timing - but I do enjoy listening to good music. And yes, Win98 users are stuck at 2.8. I do have computers with much faster chips and later versions, but I am still waiting for a stable version to appear. I thought it would be 2.12 but now there is talk of 2.14 in the next couple of months so heres hoping that we will get a new command \nbd (no bloody doubles) included in it. At least I didn't draw fire from Graham Percival because I did at least read the appropriate section of his new documentation even though Carl says that snippet is broken (in docs for the latest 'stable' version).

re: various ornaments
Have anyone figure out what are the difference of these ornaments I refferred yesterday? Another thing: c\turn only places turn above c, thus c\turn e must be played as d16 c b c e4 . But I want to write a turn between c and e, thus played as c8 d32 c b c e4 . How to do that?

Re: various ornaments
Turn after a note I write as:
{ c4 d4} \\ {s8. s16\turn s4}
This *looks* right, (adjust the s8. and s16 to move the turn; they
must add up to a crotchet).
It doesn;t sound in the MIDI output, and there's no easy way to make
it.

Re: various ornaments
Hi Peter and Hu,
Turn after a note I write as:

This *looks* right, (adjust the s8. and s16 to move the turn; they
must add up to a crotchet).
It doesn;t sound in the MIDI output, and there's no easy way to
make it.
Why not just offset the turn?
\version 2.12.1
moveTurn = \once \override Script #'X-offset = #2
theMusic = \relative { \moveTurn c'4\turn d4 }
\score { \theMusic }
Hope that helps,
Kieren.
